The annual “Sylacauga Aviation Day,” hosted by AERO Missions, is looking for another a big crowd to Lee Merkel Field on Saturday, June 26. There will be airplanes, gliders, and helicopters on display with several dozen pilots on hand to answer questions.
“We’re kind of blown away with the reception we received from the public last year, in spite of a bit of rain” said AERO Missions Director John Stanczak. “This what we want, to have people experience the world of aviation first-hand. We have a great group of interns in town from all over the country, and this a big part of why they are here, to learn how to use their love of flying in their coming mission work – an opportunity for them and for the public.”
AERO Missions is itself a ministry of equipping, enabling, and assisting missionaries worldwide.
“It’s in our name – AERO, which stands for Aviator Evangelists Reaching Others,” Stanczak noted.
Aviation Day is a fun and exciting day for the whole family with plenty to see and do, as well as many pilots who want to meet you on Saturday, June 28th from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. to experience the world of aviation firsthand. Admission is free, and everyone is welcome. There will be food trucks on site and kids’ activities available, so come make a day of it.
