American Waco Club Fly-In Arrives at Creve Coeur Airport

By Carmelo Turdo

The American Waco Club held its annual Fly-In at Creve Coeur Airport last weekend, with some aircraft arriving a few days early. Dedicated to the preservation and safe operation of Waco Aircraft types manufactured from the 1920s to late 1940s, the American Waco Club also participates in other vintage aircraft events throughout the year. The Aero Experience has covered annual fly-ins in detail in past years, and this year our schedule allowed us to visit only on Friday to capture some arrivals and initial lineup of these beautiful aircraft. Featured here is Mark and Elaine Harter's blue and white YKS-7 and the fly-by of a tandem-seat UPF-7.
