"The aviation community in the Southeast is very strong and we expect a great turnout for the first show," said Joe Frasher, Airport Director of the Greenville Downtown Airport. "We would like to encourage people to register to attend online. This will help us to have an idea of how many people to plan on and it will also get them admitted into the event quicker," he said.

The keynote speaker for the event will be Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) President Craig Fuller. The event has been marketed to many groups from high school guidance counselors all the way to experienced pilots. The show will offer something for everyone interested in aviation. Education sessions will be held throughout the day. Aviation enthusiasts can learn how to become a pilot and experienced pilots can learn about latest technology to include iPads in the cockpit.

Admission for the event is $5 for adults. Children and students will be admitted at no charge.
