Cole Palen's Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome Air Shows - Opening Weekend

The Saturday History of Flight program highlights the Pioneer era before WWI, a WWI Show teaser, and the Golden Age of Aviation in the 20s and 30s. The Sunday Show is our WWI Dog Fight Spectacular with a hero, a heroine (Cheer!), the villainous Black Baron of Rhinebeck (Boo!), scenery, pyrotechnics and a WWI tank. The supporting cast includes many antique automobiles. The stars are the historic airplanes including our 1909 Bleriot, the oldest regularly flying airplane in the Western Hemisphere; the Fokker DR-I Triplane, the most famous fighter of WWI; and a precise replica of the Spirit of St. Louis, which was the first aircraft to fly NY to Paris in 1927. While aircraft rotate on and off the flightline, usually 15-20 are flyable for our shows.
