The annual fly-in, car show, and air show is scheduled for September 10 at the Hunt Field Airport in Lander, 8 a.m.-2 p.m. with FREE admission. Start the day with a Kiwanis pancake breakfast, a free tethered hot air balloon ride and then view exotic airplanes and an array of show cars. The balloon only flies in the morning, so get there early. Our airplane parade will be touring the town as folks roll in!
Performances will begin at 9AM. A slow flight “flour bombing” competition takes to the sky shortly followed by a bush pilot competition. Three aerobatic pilots will then perform. John Bagley will perform a fly-by in a retro Navy sub hunting aircraft, the S-2 Tracker. Todd Therp will fly a Pitts Special S2B followed by Brad Wursten in his famous MXS-R. John Bagley will then perform in a T-28 Trojan! The T-28 is a Navy warbird that John will bring from the Legacy Flight Museum in Rexburg Idaho. All our performances will be described in detail by professional airshow announcer Jeff Overby of Overby Aerosports.
Adventurous Young Eagles (ages 8-18) can sign up for flights on Saturday to go up on Sunday. Attendees can fly a Syma X11 quadcopter in the safety of a hangar. And there’s lots more action with t-shirt sales, stickers, toys, and raffles! Don’t forget to buy cotton candy from our local Boy Scouts and have lunch with Rotary Club of Lander.
