Aero-News Quote of the Day

“After taking a hiatus the past two years due to the pandemic, we are thrilled to host this incredible event once again in support of children in our community. While the event itself is fun for people of all ages, and people playing tug-of-war with an airline jet is certainly a sight to see, it’s even more rewarding to see the individuals who are positively impacted by this unique fundraiser.”

The event raised $3 million since its inception, and this year is hoped to beat every previous record by leaps and bounds.
