Nineteen Incredible Years

We just celebrated our 19th birthday. That makes us older than pop singer Justin Bieber and older than Google. (It also means we have lots of experience delivering dream adventures.)

Incredible Adventures, originally known as MIGS etc., arranged its very first Russian MiG flights  in October of 1993. Our first customers included a female investment banker named Sara, a Miami furniture dealer named Alex and a reporter named Peter. You can see video of Sara and Alex's flights and read Peter's description of his flying adventure on a special page of our website devoted to our early years.

Arranging a MiG flight over Russia was a lot harder back then. In the early 90's, international phone lines were terrible and emailing wasn't yet an option. This made informing the base customers were coming difficult. We could spend all day just trying to get a single call through to Moscow. Our monthly phone bill was often more than $3000.

Paying for customer flights was also a challenge. In the early years, the base didn't have a bank account for wiring funds, so a company representative had to deliver a suitcase of cash to the base before flights. The US money had to be new looking and printed after a certain date or the director of the air base wouldn't accept it. At the time, Russian banks would refuse to exchange old or faded US dollars for rubles, fearing the dollars could be counterfeit.

Today, Incredible Adventures can call, email, text or Skype Russia with ease.  Customer flight payments can be easily made by wire transfer and hotel and other expenses can be paid by credit card.

The only obstacle to arranging a MiG flight now is time. It can take 60 days to obtain the security clearance necessary to fly a MiG-29. If you call today, we can have you climbing to the edge of space in a MiG-29 in January.

Get There the Long Way

Travel from California to Nevada the Long way. When Alaskan Bush Pilot Casey Long flies his specially-equipped Cessna 185 somewhere, getting there is the adventure.

Casey tries to take the most scenic route possible, landing on remote airstrips and at great lodges. Fitted with 29" bush wheels, Casey's FAA-certified Alaska sightseeing plane can land places other planes can't.

Come Spring, Casey will return to his air tour business in Alaska, but until then, his plane can be chartered for private custom flying adventures around America's South West. You can also join Casey on one of his favorite trips.  Casey is currently planning a flying adventure from Sacramento, California to Laughlin, Nevada.

Interested in a "road trip with wings"? Call or email us and we'll put you in touch with Casey.
