Team RV To Perform On Friday And Saturday
The 9th annual U.S. Sport Aviation Expo will kick off on January 17 at the Sebring Regional Airport with several changes offering an enhanced experience for both exhibitors and visitors, including twilight air shows by Team RV on Friday and Saturday evening. Also, new this year will be the ability for attendees to buy their tickets at a discounted rate online.
Other highlights for the 2013 event include a “Year of the Cub” salute on opening day to honor the 75th anniversary of the Piper J-3 Cub, and Bahamas Day on Sunday, with a group of sport aircraft owners departing for the Bahamas amidst the performance of a lively Junkanoo band. The popular food and wine tasting events will return as well as the Model Airplane Contest, which awards prizes to model airplane enthusiasts of all ages.
A new Expo layout and manufacturer showcases will give exhibitors more visibility and bring more activity to the Flightline area. Expo Director Jana Filip said, “During Expo 2012, we surveyed exhibitors and visitors about improving the event. Their suggestions resulted in what we believe is a more organized event layout. We also know that exhibitors and visitors appreciate the opportunity for frequent demo flights, so we’re committed to maintaining that benefit while offering more experiences for visitors.”
A broad range of educational forums will offer information about learning to fly, flying over water, flying to foreign countries, insurance, and other safety issues.
