Premier Display Area For Featured Aircraft

As many readers probably know, Boeing Plaza is in the center of the grounds and is EAA AirVenture’s premier display area where many aircraft featured during the show are placed for static display. A few of the aircraft usually remain in the plaza through the entire week, but many rotate in and out almost every day and they range from awesome military jets to warbirds to the latest innovations in aviation.

Through the years, Boeing Plaza has featured famous aircraft such as the Concorde, SpaceShipOne, and the Airbus A380.

EAA AirVenture has released the schedule as it currently stands, but people are encouraged to check the schedule daily for any updates that may happen. Some aircraft end up as last-minute cancelations while others are added on short notice.
