From catapulting flaming soldiers over castle walls to sitting on active geysers, humans have long been fixated on flying through the air. Experience the wonder of flight for yourself with today’s Groupon: for $85, you get sightseeing flight over Little Rock from Sparrow Flying Club, LLC (up to a $165 value).
With an emphasis on safety, this membership-supported aviation organization gives aeronautical aficionados an inside glimpse into the world of flight with a breathtaking sightseeing tour of central Arkansas. Aspiring geologists can do a panoramic survey Little Rock under the guidance of expert pilots in a single-engine Cessna with enough room for three altitude-seekers. Soar high above the state capital, watch the sun set over the Ozarks, or confirm the existence of clouds on your gravity-defying excursion.
For sightseers who see further flights in their crystal ball, Sparrow Flying Club offers lessons that can be applied to a sport or private pilot’s license. Interested undergraduates can book their own discovery flight to determine if winged migration is just for birds.

The Groupon Guide to: The Dry Season
Now that winter is in full swing, the air is drier than ever, resulting in a bevy of unmoist muffins and nosebleeds. Here are some tips for dealing with the latter:
- Have a joke ready, such as: This is bloodier than the Uruk-hai battle in Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring.
- Put something absorbent in your nose to stop the flow, such as whatever model you're building at the time.
- Get a role playing the bad guy in a gritty boxing movie.
- Make the most of your nosebleed by filling up all the vampire traps in the woods outside your house.
- Try to fall asleep—it will probably be over by the time you wake up.
- Since blood is thicker than water, replace your blood with water to avoid future messes.
