Spirit of St. Louis Airshow and STEM Expo, Presented by Boeing, Provides Variety of Military Aircraft from World War II to Today

By Mark Nankivil

The Spirit of St. Louis Airshow and STEM Expo, Presented by Boeing, concluded Sunday at Spirit of St. Louis Airport in the Chesterfield Valley near St. Louis.  The airshow, in its second biennial format, is reminiscent of the St. Louis County Fair & Air Shows hosted by the airport for decades through 2007.  Most of the static display aircraft available for visitors were made by the Boeing Company or other companies later absorbed into Boeing.  The Aero Experience continues our team coverage with a look at the military aircraft representing the World War II and the modern eras.
