On June 25 and 26, the Rocky Mountain EAA Fly-In was held at Front Range Airport. The airport's new air traffic control tower was dedicated during the event. A wide range of aviation subjects was covered during a forum schedule. Workshops were held to advance education in aviation, and a large number of exhibitors showed their aviation products and services to attendees.
The Experimental Aircraft Association is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to providing safe, enjoyable family experiences that inspires aviators to look to the sky. The Rocky Mountain EAA Region local chapters get together one weekend out of the year to promote aviation, celebrate the freedom of flight, support the community, and give the proceeds to local children by means of education grants and scholarships. |
