EVERETT, Wash. -- Step back into time at the Vintage Aircraft Weekend at Paine Field. It's a rare chance to see beautifully restored vintage planes from the roaring 20s through the 50s over Labor Day weekend.
Visitors will be able to check out about 65 vintage and military planes, including some that fought in World War II. The show includes flying demonstrations and air formations, as well as period music, dancing and fashion.
Organizers hope to pass along a bit of history to the young and old.
"It's sort of an appreciation for art the beauty, also a period of technology, innovation and advancement," said John Sessions, Historic Flight Foundation CEO.
This weekend, bi-plane rides will be available for a fee. A cheaper option is buying and winning one through a raffle.
Doors open Saturday at 9 a.m. at Paine Field at the Historic Flight Foundation 10719 Bernie Webber Drive, Mukilteo. Kids 10 and under are free, adults pay $15, military and seniors are $12.
