We remember the period between the end of World War I and the United States' entry into World War II as The Golden Age of Aviation, and it truly was. Barnstorming tours, major trophy races, and record-breaking flights all captured the public's attention as they raced to see the daring flocks of birdmen, and take their first flight in an open cockpit airplane.
Each afternoon the aircraft will take to the skies for the "Barnstormers Parade of Flight" with master of ceremonies, EAA Radio on-air personality, Jeff Montgomery. Jeff will entertain the crowd with his unique announcing style while they hear tall tales of barnstorming and learn the history of each biplane as the pilots perform overhead. Spectators can even experience the thrill of open cockpit flight for themselves and go barnstorming in a beautifully restored Travel Air or New Standard vintage biplane. Biplane rides will be for sale daily weather permitting.
All barnstormers will participate in recreating the era with period costumes, aircraft signage, historical information, and vintage props. All barnstormers will participate in recreating the era with period costumes, aircraft signage, historical information, and vintage props.
Currently we are planning for approximately 18-20 aircraft.
