Aviation Day 2006

On Saturday, Feb. 12, 2006 Chapter 99 hosted their fourth annual Aviation Day at Vero Beach Airport. The weather was sunny, but lots of wind. Close to 30 knots sustained with higher gusts kept a lot of aircraft grounded. A special attraction at this year´s event were a B-25 from the Collings Foundation, Miami. The promised B-17 missed the event because of an engine failure. Still visitors enjoyed looking at various aircrafts on static display, including model airplanes and other aviation related exhibits. There were also military displays, helicopters, a jet car, fire and rescue trucks and more.
