Picture of the day: Who needs flying reindeer?

By General Aviation News Staff · November 29, 2017 ·

Ace photographer Hayman Tam sent in these photos of Santa Claus at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos, California.

“Giving a respite to his famous reindeer team, Santa Claus has been arriving at the Hiller Aviation Museum via helicopter for a number of years,” Hayman reports. “Not your typical mall Santa, he holds court with the little ones while seated on a vintage United Airlines first class seat.”
