Airport Days

Our little municipal airport hosted it's annual Airport Days on Saturday.  It's just about a mile from our house, so at about 10 o'clock that morning, we started hearing planes circle.  They were giving free airplane rides to kids 8-17 and $30 helicopter rides.  Sophia spent the night so the four of us headed over shortly after it began.

Kevin took the kids around to some of the aircraft that were on display while I signed them up and waited in line.

They wanted to ride together, but most flights were 3 kids at a time and their were 3 "doubles" in front of us.  When they called for the next group, the guy said it would be easier on the pilot if they were in threes.  Camden and Sophia decided to split up and Camden headed with the first group.

Camden volunteered to be in the passenger's side.  I think she got the best seat...and view.

 

Once she got in the air, it was Sophia's turn.  A single seat plane was available, so she volunteered to go in it.  Again...another great option.

It was a beautiful day for a flight!  As you can imagine, they both LOVED it.
