Valkaria Air Fest

Last weekend was the Valkaria Air Fest, and it was an awesome event. Every year, it brings out the community as a whole to see the awesome, fun side of aviation. Among the events was interviews with the Tuskegee Airmen, airshow displays, fun activities, and community outreach events and fundraisers. I finished first place in the landing contest at it (yay for me!). For the greater portion of the day, I acted as air traffic control for the event and assistant volunteer coordinator. It was a lot of work, but it really brings out the community spirit of aviation. Fly-in events like these bring the community together to promote aviation, a day of fun, learning, and just, well, more fun!
