Dear members and friends,
Please join me for a most extraordinary and unique vacation experience as we celebrate those who wrote Russia's flight and aviation history. Nowhere else can you find such an extensive behind the scenes sightseeing program exclusively for aviation and space aficionados. You will have the opportunity to tour the Russian Air force Museum, the MAKS 2009 Air Show, Star City (home of the MIR and SOYUZ docking stations), enjoy Bolshoi Theater tickets, see the Kremlin up close, explore the Civil Aviation Academy and Pulkovo Complex, visit the Hermitage Museum, Peterhof Grand Palace, Bykovo and Myatchikovo Airports with ramp tours and much, much, more. Not long ago the Soviet Iron Block prevented us from experiencing any of these sights but on this amazing tour, you will personally meet and learn from a former Soviet Cosmonaut. This tour is unique and one-of-a-kind as we will be touring many places of interest that are inaccessible to the general public. You cannot experience this program anywhere else!

With the dissolution of the Soviet Union, we now have a fresh opportunity to explore a myriad of ancient Russian cultures, from the majestic capital of Moscow to the impressive and grand St. Petersburg. Russia has so much more to offer- it is a country that spans eleven time zones and two continents, ending less than 50 miles from North America. Throwing off the blanket of communist uniformity, today's Russia is full of diversity, a place where ancient cathedrals are being and restored, colorful markets are alive and the arts are quickly gaining world-wide admiration and respect. The new Russia is at our fingertips for the first time in modern day history. Experience the rich Russian aviation and Soviet Russian culture, industry from the past to the present when you "take flight" with us for this exciting and enlightening vacation. Please reserve early to avoid missing out on this once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Sincerely,
James G. Kidrick
