Our History
San Diego Sky Tours was founded
in 2009 at Montgomery Field with
a single Cessna 206 and a great
business idea. With beautiful San
Diego Bay, the surreal ocean and
sunset views, our city makes the
perfect site for an aerial tour
company.
James Kapenas and Ryan
Poortinga started the company as
part of Ryan's college business
plan competion at San Diego State
University. They received stellar
accolades for their hard work and
business plan. Ryan left for
commissioning in the Air Force
and now serves as a
commissioned officer.
Erich Moulder became a partner in
2011. He brought his knowledge
and skill with aerobatic biplane
aircraft to San Diego Sky Tours.
Jim and Erich added Biplanes to
the company and Sky Tours FAA
Letter of Authorization. The
Biplane Tours and Bay Tours
were now part of the offerings
increasing our tour portfolio and
doubling our tour revenue. Soon
after development of an aerobatic
program, San Diego Sky Tours
offered Aerobatic thrill rides.
Soon after, they developed an
Upset Recovery Training course
and Tail Wheel training program
for certificated pilots.
