First Fly-In of the Summer!


The first Fly-In of the summer took place in Geauga County on June 23. 


Chief Denise said, "It was kind of like having an airport day."


 It was sponsored by the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), which is designed to promote aviation. The EAA oversees a program called the Young Eagles. 
Chief said they had some neat war birds on display, sometimes they have an airshow and they gave free airplane rides to young kids. 



"We were there promoting American Winds Flight Academy and aviation while giving airplane rides. It is a way to open the airport and get people interested in the world of aviation," Chief Denise said. She is always telling everyone how they can become a pilot!


Representing American Winds were Kris Aquinde and Chris Stevenot.
