Returning Grand Champions Strut Their Stuff
SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo is celebrating its 50th anniversary by inviting the owners of past Grand Champions and Reserve Grand Champions to bring their award-winning aircraft back to SUN ‘n FUN as guests and commemorate 50 Years of Fly-In Happy with them.
The event, called Echo of Champions, will showcase the best of the best aircraft that have won the highest award, Grand Champion and Reserve Champion amongst each aircraft division. The aircraft will be parked front-row along Taxiway Echo, and visitors can look for these award-winning aircraft as they return to SUN ‘n FUN to once again share their beautiful aircraft with us.
The SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo is a non-profit organization that aims to inspire and educate people on the aerospace industry. The organization hosts events throughout the year to raise money for the Aerospace Center for Excellence (ACE), which has emerged as a nationally recognized leader in STEM-related and aerospace education through its various learning centers, outreach programs, scholarships, and summer camps aimed at engaging, educating, and accelerating the next generation of aerospace professionals. The SUN ‘n FUN Aerospace Expo is Florida’s largest annual convention of any kind, and each year over 200,000 visitors flock to what has become known as “Aviation’s Season Opener” or “Spring Break for Pilots”.
The SUN ‘n FUN Echo of Champions is an excellent opportunity to celebrate the best of the best aircraft that have won the highest award and to commemorate 50 Years of Fly-In Happy with the owners of past Grand Champions and Reserve Grands Champions.
