Officials at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome in New York said that the Aerodrome’s Saturday Air Show featuring flying antique airplanes of the pioneer and barnstorming era will take place as planned at 2 p.m. TFRs over Rhinebeck for Chelsea Clinton’s wedding will be respected by re-routing biplane air tours away from the restricted area during the TFR period between 3 p.m. on Saturday through 3:30 a.m. Sunday morning. The 2 p.m. World War I Air Show and biplane rides on Sunday will not be affected, officials added.
“There are abundant opportunities to fly our biplane ride passengers over beautiful areas of the Hudson River Valley other than over Rhinebeck,” said Don Fleming, Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome vice president, “but folks signing up for a biplane ride on Saturday should not expect to be treated to a birds-eye-view of the Clinton-Mezvinski nuptials.”
Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome holds weekend air shows from mid-June through mid-October. Up to four passengers can fly together in the Aerodrome’s D-25 New standard biplane for $65 per passenger. The museum and grounds are open from 10 a.m.–5 p.m. daily. There are four hangars full of 1909–1940s airplanes, automobiles and related artifacts to browse.
