I recently got checked out in their G1000 172 and received some instruction in it to check some boxes off for my commercial certificate. I'm an IFR-rated private pilot with about 320 hours. My impression is that their aircraft are kept in tip-top condition. It helps they're owned by the maintenance company who does all the maintenance on the aircraft; so nothing is left unfixed. I've seen some pretty long-in-the-tooth rental aircraft at other local airports. Rates are fair both for rental and instructors. You spend a little less on the hobbs flying out of O69 as opposed to towered airports due to less taxi distance required, closer practice area, and less waiting for other traffic to clear. Overall I've gotten the impression PPTC is a professional outfit with a high standard for their aircraft.

Mother's Day - A Birthday Extravaganza!…read more Two years ago I flew in the SNJ-4 Texan for a birthday thrill; this year my wonderful wife gave me an hour ride in Vintage Aircraft's P-51 Mustang! She's the best! If you love the sound of a WWII high performance engine, love speed and appreciate the 20 year old pilots who flew these magnificent machines during a war, the P-51 is a plane to experience. Drove to the Schellville airport on Mother's Day for my ride. Travis pulled the P-51 from it's hanger, went through it's extensive pre-flight check and fueled her up. At this point, my heart was pounding with excitement and anticipation of a ride in a P-51! I told Travis I was also taking another P-51 crew with us that day, he had a quizzed look. My mother's deceased husband was stationed in England during WWII and was assigned to a P-51 squadron as an armourer (loaded 50 cal ammo and fueled the planes for their next flight). Found a picture of Mick, the pilot, mechanic, crew chief all standing beside their assigned P-51, the GlenGaryGuy. Pilot had his wife's name "Jackie" on the other side. They all got to go for one more ride! Chris Prevost, the pilot, asked where I wanted to go? I'd done the Golden Gate Bridge, out over Marin County to Tomales Bay and back in the Texan. Chris had a suggestion - Schellville to Lake Berryessa and over into the San Joaquin Valley, up along the Vaca Range to Middletown, over to Santa Rosa, out to Bodega Bay, Tomales Bay and down to Mill Valley and Mt Tam with a ride down Miller Ave, out to the Golden Gate Bridge and back to Schellville - heck yeah, sign me up!! Travis gave me instructions on how to climb onto the plane and into the rear seat, tight but comfortable and buckled in. Thank goodness I had a hat. I'm 6'1" and just barely had head room (though I was too excited to care). Chris brought the Merlin V-1650 to life and we taxied down to the end of the runway, brought the oil temp up, closed the canopy and we rolled down the runway - full speed ahead. Pulled back and up we went - what a rush! Travis had taken my wife to a point where she could record the whole liftoff - yeah! My adrenaline rush was in high gear! I immediately thought of the young pilots who risked their lives for our freedom; here I was just on a joy ride in a plane they flew in actual combat or escorting bombers - kind of surreal. Great sidebar to the flight was being actually being able to see the devastation from all of the fires from Lake Berryessa all the way too Middletown - scorched earth. Bodega Bay to the mouth of Tomales Bay gives a real perspective how beautiful our coastal area is. Chris did a couple of sharp turns, the P-51 cut the sky like a sharp knife. I kept the headsets halfway on, wanted to "hear" the roar of the P-51's engine. Down to Mill Valley, lined up on Miller Ave and out we went to the Golden Gate Bridge. What a day! I guess I should end my story, though writing about flying in the Mustang brings back all the fun I enjoyed that day. Travis and my wife had been monitoring our flight and were ready for our landing. Again, Travis set my wife up in a location to capture the event. Thanks again to Vintage Aircraft, Chris, Travis and my wife for an epic day of flying in a P-51 Mustang.

From start to finish, my ride with Divine Luxury was nothing short of exceptional. I had planned a…read morespecial evening--dinner reservations in San Francisco--and I wanted the journey to feel just as memorable as the destination. Divine Luxury and the incredible Raquel, who turned what would've been a simple drive into an experience I'll remember for a long time. Raquel arrived right on time in a pristine black Suburban that looked like it just rolled out of a showroom. From the moment I stepped outside, she greeted me with a genuine smile and opened the door like I was someone important--which, for that night, I was. The vehicle was immaculate--clean leather seats, subtle luxury fragrance, and perfectly set ambient lighting. Waiting for me inside were chilled bottles of water and a carefully curated assortment of snacks, from granola bars to gourmet trail mix, tucked into a premium leather tray. I knew right away: this wasn't just transportation. This was an experience. As we pulled out of Santa Rosa, the energy in the vehicle felt calm and effortless. Raquel's driving style is composed, safe, and incredibly smooth. She handled every curve of the highway and every pocket of traffic with confidence and ease. I never once had to glance at the GPS, check the clock, or wonder if we were on schedule. I could fully relax, enjoy the views, and just be present in the moment. There's something to be said about the power of letting go of all logistics and simply enjoying the ride--and Raquel gave me that gift. What stood out even more was how in tune Raquel was with the vibe of the evening. She matched my mood perfectly. When I wanted to chat, she was engaging and warm. When I needed to zone out and mentally prepare for the night ahead, she gave me that space without a word. It was effortless on her part, but deeply appreciated on mine. When we rolled up to the restaurant in San Francisco, I stepped out feeling like a VIP. People actually looked over to see who was getting out. It wasn't about showing off--it was about feeling taken care of, respected, and elevated. Divine Luxury didn't just get me to dinner. They gave me a sense of presence, peace, and pride walking in that door. And for someone who usually juggles their own driving, parking, and planning--it made all the difference. After dinner, Raquel was right outside at the exact time we had arranged. The car was warm, the music was set to a mellow playlist, and I slipped into the back seat without a single worry in the world. The ride home was just as perfect. I even dozed off for a bit--something I'd never risk doing in a regular ride-share. That's how much trust I had in her. The best part? For the level of professionalism, comfort, and elegance Divine Luxury provides, the pricing was surprisingly competitive. It felt like an investment in a memory--and one I would gladly make again. So if you're looking for high-end, reliable, safe, and personalized transportation in Santa Rosa, Napa, Sonoma, or San Francisco, don't waste time looking elsewhere. Book with Divine Luxury. Ask for Raquel. You'll be treated like royalty, arrive in style, and most importantly, feel like the night you planned is already something special--before you even get there.

Every time Raquel drives me, it's hands down an enriching, elevated, and stress-free experience. She's not just a driver..she's a vibe.**** Highly, highly recommend Divine Luxury to anyone looking for reliable, affordable, luxury-level transportation that comes with great conversation, positive energy, and absolute peace of mind.
