Airport Fun Day, held Saturday at Johnson County Executive Airport near Olathe, Kansas, brought local families and aviators together to celebrate the miracle of flight in this great Midwest Aviation community. The annual event, sponsored by Air Associates of Kansas and KC Copters, provided a variety of ways for visitors to experience aviation. Aircraft of various types were in the air and available on the ramp throughout the day. The Aero Experience was on the ground at Airport Fun Day to visit our sponsor, Air Associates of Kansas, and get to know our new friends at KC Copters. We see this type of event as one of the best ways to share the joy of flight with the local community and encourage those considering a career in aviation to take action toward accomplishing that goal. Here are some more views of the flying activities that took place all day on Saturday:
