View From The Top
There?s no better way to see Maine?s majestic fall foliage than from aloft.

Gas up the car. Unfold the map. Aim north. These are familiar steps for thousands of dedicated leaf peepers who drive to and around Maine each fall to view the state's breathtaking foliage. But if you want a higher perspective -- say, 1,500 feet higher -- you may want to add another step: the long climb up into the cockpit or cabin of an airplane.While sightseeing through the windshield of a car has long been the standard to peruse Maine's fall color show, "flightseeing" is gaining popularity with people seeking to maximize their foliage tours.
