No Father's Day Flight Breakfast this year. Unfortunately due to current circumstances with the club we will not be able to hold the Father's Day Flight Breakfast this year. The airport cafe will be open though.

Congratulations to Quincy's own on his fantastic restore of Cessna C172 serial number 1.

Father's Day breakfast gets people interested in aviation The local Experimental Aircraft Association held its annual Father's Day fly-in/drive-in breakfast on Sunday. Families could enjoy pancakes and sausage, and youth ages 8 through 17 could fly in an airplane, free of charge.

Gorgeous day for our flight breakfast and young eagle flights.

We had a great Father's Day fly-in! Thanks to all our volunteers, fly-in pilots and all who attended today.
Nearly 400 breakfasts served, 35 visiting planes and 22 Young Eagles got their first airplane ride. Happy Father's Day 2016!

Lots of planes arriving today. Come on out!
