EAA's Pioneer Airport will be transformed into a fun fly zone as up to two dozen ultralights and light planes descend onto the grass airstrip to participate in EAA Ultralight Day 2015.
As part of the event, invited members from three different EAA Chapters from around the state will use special procedures to fly their ultralights and light planes to Pioneer Airport in two mass arrivals between 9-10am, weather permitting. Beginning at about 1pm, pilots will conduct several pilot proficiency events, which include accuracy landings, bean bag drops, and torpedo run contests.
These unique flying machines will vary in style and design, ranging from powered parachutes to traditional fixed wing aircraft.
Anyone who wants to have a fun afternoon learning about this unique and accessible segment of flying is invited to attend Ultralight Day. Aircraft rides will be available for purchase 10:30am-12:30pm and lunch will be available for purchase 11am-3p.m.
Admission to the activities is included with regular museum admission for non-EAA members, and is free for EAA members.
