The Fifteenth Annual Midwest LSA Expo, held September 7-9 at Mount Vernon Outland Airport in central Illinois, featured a variety of light sport aircraft brands including the return of the Bristell 912 as mentioned in our previous post. The Aero Experience coverage continues with this survey of the event activity and LSA aircraft on exhibit Thursday and Friday.
