Sky High Air Tours, Sevierville

A ride at Sky High Air Tours is exactly like a trip to a flight museum, except for one detail: you actually fly in the historic plane. It's a biplane with an open cockpit—a 1927 Waco Model 10, to be exact—that was originally used for chores like dusting crops and delivering mail. Today, the wind whips passengers' hair as they glide in the shipshape vintage plane over landmarks like the Great Smoky Mountains. They enjoy bird's-eye views and the thrill of revisiting aircraft of yore.
