congregate. Builders and restorers can display and compare their flying
projects and exchange ideas with other builders. With good weather, attendance
is normally around 2500 people who can expect to see about 200 aircraft (with
about 50 being experimental or classic aircraft) over the course of the
weekend.

Homebuilt, Warplanes, and Classics crowd the tarmac area. Antiques and post
