Scenic Flight with Island Seaplanes

One Hour Dual in Cessna 172 on Big Island from Hawaii Flight Academy

Thirty Minutes of Dual Glider Instruction at Honolulu Soaring

40 Minute Acro Flight with Clint Churchill in Extra 300L

Acroflight, Inc.
One Life-Vest-Containing Belt from Aviation Life Support, Inc., in the green Air Service Hangar off Nakolo Place. If you've ever watched a group of light plane travelers trying to don their vests on a wide-open airport ramp, you'd realize that some of them wouldn't successfully complete this task in a small plane during a rushed emergency. Consequently, it makes sense to wear your vest enroute or wear a belt which contains a vest. With the belt, you will always have flotation gear with you when exiting an aircraft.
