Where Passion Meets Purpose
Discover the deeper mission behind every flight
Our PURPOSE is bigger than flight
We exist to create wealth—not for personal gain, but to fuel ministry, support charitable work, and build a lasting legacy for future generations. Many are familiar with the biblical principle of tithing: giving 10% of one’s income to God’s purposes. Fewer know of reverse tithing—the radical idea of giving away 90% and living on just 10%. That’s the vision that drives us. It's bold, countercultural, and deeply rooted in faith—and it's the kind of generosity we aspire to embody.

Why we don’t operate on Sundays
At Suncoast Biplanes, we choose not to fly on Sundays because we believe in honoring the Sabbath—a day set apart for rest, renewal, and spiritual grounding, as taught in Scripture. In a world that rarely slows down, we find deep value in returning to timeless principles: stepping back, reconnecting with faith and family, and remembering that life is not only about motion, but meaning.
This day of rest is more than a tradition—it’s a quiet expression of trust, reverence, and gratitude. It's how we stay rooted, even as we help others take to the skies. In many ways, setting Sundays aside feels right for another reason, too: it echoes the spirit of a slower, more intentional time—the era Gracie represents: the Golden Age of Aviation, when values like simplicity, presence, and wonder were not just remembered, but lived.
At Suncoast Biplanes, we love our community and we’re deeply committed to giving back.
Supporting local organizations and charities that uplift, serve, and create lasting impact is a core part of who we are.
Though we’ve planted new roots in Southwest Florida, our hearts still hold strong ties to Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
It’s where our journey began, and we remain committed to giving back to the friends and community who helped shape us. For us, generosity doesn’t have borders—it travels wherever we do.
