ZENITH HOMECOMING Open Hangar Days & Fly-In - September 18 & 19 - Mexico, Missouri.
Join us for two full days of educational and fun activities!
The Zenith Homecoming is the premier annual gathering for Zenith builders, owners, pilots and aviation enthusiasts, bringing the Zenith community together at the factory where the airplanes are designed and manufactured.
Fly in or drive in. All aviation enthusiasts are welcome. Beginning Friday morning, the schedule features educational seminars, demonstrations and hands-on workshops covering aircraft engines, avionics, maintenance, aircraft construction and more.
Visitors can tour the Zenith Aircraft factory, check out a wide variety of Zenith airplanes, meet fellow builders and pilots, gain hands-on aircraft-building experience and enjoy flying demonstrations. Friday evening will feature our popular Zenith BBQ banquet outdoors on the factory ramp, surrounded by airplanes and friends, along with special guests and door prizes.
