Today we celebrate National Aviation Day! ✈️🇺🇸

As a family-owned FBO, aviation is more than a business to us—it’s a passion, a tradition, and a community we’re proud to be part of. From first flights to lifelong journeys, we’re grateful to serve the pilots, passengers, and aviation families who keep the skies moving.

Here’s to the freedom to fly and the people who make aviation special. Happy National Aviation Day! 🛩️

Pancakes are on the griddle! Come on out and support the lions club and have some delicious breakfast. Unfortunately, airplane rides are on hold until we determine if the weather clears up enough to start selling them – we will make a post if we are able to start. Thank you!

Sunday is the day!! We’ll have pancakes, plane rides (weather permitting) and fun for all! Hope to see you there!

Just a short 10 days away from the Fly-In and Pancake Breakfast in Charles City!

We've had several questions about the airplane rides, so thought we'd jump on here and answer some of them for you:

1 - Price of the Rides is $35 per person, and there are 3 seats available in each aircraft. We keep the 4th seat for the pilot ... they kind of need it.

2 - We will begin selling plane rides at 7:30 am Sunday morning, and pilots will be ready to start rides shortly after. We will not be pre-selling rides ahead of time.

3 - We accept cash, card, and check. We do not have the ability to accept Apple Pay or Venmo.

Hope this helps - and hope to see all of you there! It's a great time!
