The Latest Generation Of RC Aircraft Will Be Shown... And So
Much More
It's no surprise to those of who fly that the concept of
'Flying' has been one of the most common and most enchanting
fascinations of mankind.
For those enamored of the model side of the aviation equation,
this year's Arlington Fly-In has much to offer... and if you
weren't interested in RC models before, this Fly-In may change that
for you. From basic electric flyers to fast flying jets and turbine
powered helicopters, the Academy of Model Aeronautics chapters from
three counties, have teamed up to show it all at the Arlington 2009
Fly-In July 8-12.
Display includes antique engines, homebuilt aircraft, gliders,
jets and helicopters. Simulators will be on hand for you to try
your hand at the controls. Each day during the airshow a featured
Radio Controlled flying demonstration will take place. Now with
advanced remote control technology, you can give flight to your
fancy in a different way. Experts will be on hand to discuss
building techniques, places to fly and the requisite flying
stories.
Displayed aircraft scheduled to be shown and flown include WWI
era fighters to modern day jet fighters, antiques and one of a kind
scratch built.
The Arlington Fly-In is the third largest sport aviation event
in the US. Over 1,000 aircraft and 60,000 guests participate in the
week long festival of aviation. The 2008 Arlington Fly-In will be
held July 8 – 12, 2009 at the Arlington Municipal
Airport.
