The Waterloo International Airport, Waterloo-Wellington Flight Centre and Great Lakes Helicopter held an Aviation Fun Day on April 28th, 2012. The event featured introductory flights in the Flight School’s aircraft as well as Robinson R-44s from Great Lakes. The Canadian Harvard Aircraft Association was also on hand to give Harvard Flight experiences for those that wanted to fly in something a little more exotic.

Many organizations had booths in the hangars and a kid’s fun center was set up. The Waterloo Airport Fire Department fire truck was open for tours and saw an endless flow of people n the cab. Local aerobatic personality and Canadian legend, Gerry Younger, was also on hand.

The event was very family oriented and a great way to get the local communities out to the airport to see the many changes that are taking place.
