Fly-Ins
A "Fly-In" is an event where aircraft owners and pilots gather at a specific location, often an airport or airfield. These gatherings can include various activities such as aircraft displays, flying competitions, and social events. Fly-Ins are popular among aviation enthusiasts and provide an opportunity for networking and sharing experiences.
Participants often bring their own aircraft, which can range from small private planes to larger vintage models. Some Fly-Ins are organized by aviation clubs or associations, such as the Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA), and may feature workshops, seminars, and guest speakers to educate attendees about aviation topics.
