Throughout the day, visitors enjoyed viewing indoor and outdoor displays. Aviation has a way of bringing people together, and often those relationships last a long time.

Pass-it-on love of aviation legacy is shared between these three men. Kevin Johnson (center) from Pekin and Barry Miller (left) from Lincoln are flight instructors. Johnson taught Miller to fly 35 years ago. A few years ago Miller taught LCHS teacher Doug Benz (right) to fly. Johnson and Miller each flew several loads of riders on Sunday in the 1st Flight airplane that Johnson flew in from Pekin.


In front of the hangar was the newly restored military Jeep worked on by Bob Huff. 


Children created masterpieces at the aviation coloring table.
