Throughout the festival, the best of the best in aviation perform precision aerial maneuvers, flying at speeds of up to 300 miles per hour, in Fantasy of Flight owner Kermit Weeks’  “World’s Greatest Aircraft Collection.”  Challenging their full-size counterparts, giant-scale model aircraft will strut their stuff in their own demonstrations.  Meanwhile, classic car lovers stroll through the Rare, Antique, Classic & Exotic Car Show, marveling at classic and one-of-a-kind luxury automobiles.  Powered paragliders create a colorful canopy in the sky while vintage race boats from the Classic Race Boat Association perform fly-bys below.  New this year, they’re also hosting a “Sweet & Saucy” food festival with ice cream and hot wing recipe contests, tasting and interactive activities, as well as arts and crafts for the kids.

Advance ticket purchasers will receive one FREE child’s admission ($12, ages 6-15) with each paid adult ticket ($23). In addition, guests will receive an “added value” when they donate supplies for troop care packages to be assembled and mailed at the festival in conjunction with Homefront Hugs USA.
