We visit museums and airports, have guest speakers at our meetings to talk about what they’ve done in aviation - airline pilots or recreational flyers, instructors or students, controllers or drone pilots. We’ve visited local airports and air traffic control towers; gone to air shows; done ground school instruction… you’ll help plan what we do!

June 4th (Rain date June 5th) - Reading World War II Days - The
Mid-Atlantic Air Museum hosts a World War Two Weekend every year,
featuring an airshow with warbirds of all varieties. “Diamond Lil”,
one of the very few remaining flying B-24 Liberator bombers, will be
there in 2019, along with the CAF’s B-29 bomber "FIFI" (one
of only two left flying), and many more. Meet, speak with, and collect
autographs from WWII veteran Special Guests, and hear their fascinating,
first-person accounts, presented daily on stage and in the briefing
tent. More than 1,700 WWII military and civilian re-enactors and dozens
of combat and support units, representing many nations, will be all
around you. See up to 200 military vehicles, from motorcycles to Jeeps
to tanks - the biggest gathering in the country. Stroll around the
sprawling encampments and experience what life was like for the "G.I.
Joe's", "Tommies", "Diggers","Ivans",
and "Jerries" in the field.
Also, June 28th - EAA Chapter 811 Hangar Block Party at Ithaca Airport - all Explorers are welcome! |

time will be determined when we line up volunteer pilots and airplanes.
We've had to cancel twice before due to weather and then Covid-19 -
third time's a charm! Also, July 16th - EAA Chapter 811 Fly-in Barbecue at Rick Reynolds' Perry City International airstrip - all Explorers are welcome. |
