Jake Guinn has officially joined the most elite group of individuals in performing flying. Welcome to ZFX, where gravity is optional and uniforms sometimes come with kilts. ✈️🪽

It’s kilt day for Forrest! 🎉 Nothing says ‘official’ like stepping into the ZFX uniform and taking flight in style. Welcome to the sky squad, Forrest—you’ve truly kilt it.

Big thanks to for keeping our team flying fierce and functional 🦵🪽💸

✨ 35 YEARS IN THE AIR ✨

Our founder Robert Dean has officially been in the flying industry longer than some of our current directors have been alive (!). From harnesses and h**p ropes to high-tech wizardry, he’s seen it all, built it all, and flown everyone.
Well. Almost everyone.

Here’s to 35 years of making the impossible look effortless. 🚀💫

A few production shots from The Wizard of OZ with Maquee Productions in Fall River, MA.

If we look busy… it’s because we are. Super cool flying projects don’t build themselves. 🚀✨
