Flying With The Aero Experience: Piper Cub Flight Around the Antique Airplane Association 2015 Fly-In

By Mark Nankivil

The Aero Experience provided extensive coverage of the Antique Airplane Association Fly-In at Antique Airfield near Blakesburg, IA in 2015.  The annual summer event attracts a wide variety of vintage aircraft, many of which carry an impressive pedigree.  We saw a great mix of vintage aircraft that included the iconic St. Louis Robin, which set endurance record of over 420 hours in 1929 through the use of primitive aerial refueling.  Also present were Ryan SCW-145, Meyers OTW, Boeing Stearman, and a selection of Stinson, Piper Cub, Fairchild, Beechcraft and Cessna classics.
