The 16th MidWest Aviation Expo is now history... and it sure was a good show.

The ANN team sent four of our top folks to the event and came away impressed with the quality of the aircraft we saw and flew and the fact that the industry is soldiering on despite the fact that MOSAIC has been oft delayed and is creating a lot of uncertainty among manufacturers and buyers. The latest version of Aeropilot’s L600 was a focal point of RT Aviation’s display at the 2024 Midwest Aviation Expo. Test flights in the aircraft were offered throughout the weekend. The light-sport Legend 600 is an all-composite, high-wing, strut-braced two-seater. Its empty weight is a mere 739 lbs, though it still produces impressive performance and easy handling with a climb rate of 1378 fpm and 108kt cruise speed. Piston Aviation exhibited several of their light-sport trainers at the Midwest Aviation Expo. Piston Aviation is a Part 61 school that offers private, sport, transition, instrument, commercial, and CFI training on a diverse range of aircraft. They have two Bristells and two Vipers, plus
a third awaiting delivery... All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
