Pilots from around the state will be strutting their stuff at this year’s Third Annual Fly-In Airshow at the Wasilla Airport, June 11th – 13th.
Over 10,000 aviation enthusiasts, young and old, enjoyed last year’s airshow. The airshow has something for everyone in the air and on the ground to marvel at and even ride unique aircraft. Aviation enthusiasts can watch talented local pilots show their skill in the STOL (Short Take-Off and Landing) Competition.
Last year’s Wings Over Wasilla brought in over 300 aircraft to the Wasilla Airport over the weekend, some to compete and some just to show off. Some come for the party and camp on the Wasilla Airport grounds.
Justin Giles of G&G Sound and Light will be on hand again this year to provide commentary, announce the winners and provide music for dancing from his extensive playlist.
Settlers Bay Golf Course will be there again this year to provide a beer/beverage garden. Food trucks from around the state will provide a variety of delicious options to satisfy everyone in the family.
“This free, family-friendly event has grown every year due to the support of our community and the great location,” says James Grogan, Airshow Advisory Chairman.
