Planes

An icon of aviation history is now at your fingertips. This is your adventure – to go wherever you want to go, to see whatever you want to see with the rumble of the radial engine and the wind whistling through the flying wires as your soundtrack. In the Amphibious YMF-5, you have the controls to explore unrestricted movement in three dimensions. You are no longer just a pilot when you fly WACO, you are an aviator. You have joined the legacy of stick and rudder grassroots aviation as you soar through the skies in a biplane built entirely by the hands of artisans in Battle Creek, Michigan. Our team spends over 6,000 hours passionately carving, covering, stitching, and painting your aircraft by hand. Your flying work of art is not a rebuild or restoration. Your brand new Amphibious YMF-5 complete with a set of composite amphibious floats from Aerocet, MT composite constant-speed prop, integrated docking handles and wing walks on either side. The entire frame is internally-oiled and epoxy coated, and all cabling and hardware is stainless steel – ideal for fresh and saltwater operation. Stop settling for autopilot and experience flight for what it was always meant to be – a skill, a passion, a way of life. Here is your open invitation to be immersed in your love of flight. Call now to schedule your demo flight!

The Waco YMF-5 is a contemporary biplane design produced by the Waco Classic Aircraft Corporation, which combines vintage aesthetics with modern performance and safety features.
