Testimonials for The Aero Experience
"Gateway Jets and I pass on a Sincere Thank You to Carmelo and The Aero Experience for some great company and outstanding coverage of our expansion and open house. The pictures look phenomenal, and the 3-part series covers our operations and philosophy perfectly."  Corey Tomczak, Gateway Jets

"St. Louis is a great aviation town with a rich history. I feel that there are a vast amount of activities missed because the word didn't get out, which is why I am very thankful to The Aero Experience team for their efforts to promote Midwest aviation. I like to joke that I can't afford a nice camera, so I have to take Carmelo with me. The truth is, I like Carmelo and what The Aero Experience does for the aviation community."
Paul Voorhees, Big River Aviation
 
"Carmelo really has a talent of capturing cool pics. We are lucky to have him in our area!" Bob Hamilton, Pitts Special Competition Pilot
