The Midwest Aviation community in the St. Louis and Metro East Illinois area came together today for a Labor Day Benefit Event hosted by the Greater St. Louis Air & Space Museum and EAA Chapter 64 at St. Louis Downtown Airport. The event was conceived by Brian Kissinger, USAF veteran, pilot, itinerant minister and two-time brain cancer survivor to raise funds for Pediatric Brain
Tumor Foundation, Fisher
House, and a
fellow member of EAA Chapter
64 who needs
temporary financial support to weather a family crisis. When Kissinger proposed the idea, the Greater St. Louis Air & Space Museum and EAA Chapter 64 immediately agreed to participate. Hundreds of visitors enjoyed visiting the Museum and watching the aircraft fly in from around the region. What started out as an idea to help others turned into an enjoyable family-friendly day at the airport, and one that will affect those in crisis for years to come.
The Aero Experience is proud to have been an early supporter of this event, and we also wish to thank Brian Kissinger (and his ministries Brain's Flight and Pax et Amor), the Greater St. Louis Air & Space Museum, EAA Chapter 64, St. Louis Downtown Airport, Ideal Aviation, and many individual contributors who made this a very successful benefit event.
