SIMSBURY FLY-IN AND CAR SHOW
Welcome to the 28th annual Simsbury Fly-In and Car Show, to be held this year on Sunday, September 15th from 8 AM to 3 PM (Rain date Sept 22). We are the largest event of its kind in New England, featuring displays of more than 600 great airplanes and cars of virtually every type and vintage. Last year more than 12,000 spectators attended our show.
This year's special features include:
Connecticut Air and Space Center presents the Gustave Whitehead replica aircraft and Andy Kosch's seminar: "Did he fly before the Wrights?"
Cirrus Vision SF50 Jet
Oshkosh Grand Champion Lancair Legacy
Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome WW1 Spad and Tiger Moth
1920 Blimp Engine test runs
Formation Flying demonstrations
RE/MAX hot air balloon rides
Free seminars
Many new car and airplane dealers
Exhibits by local vendors - crafts and services
Breakfast, lunch, Ben and Jerry's, many other great food items.
Our venue is Simsbury Airport, specifically designed so you can see our airplanes and cars up close and talk with their proud owners. Our airplanes range from antiques dating back to the 1920's, to homebuilts, helicopters, small former military aircraft, and brand new models on display by dealers. The Car Show portion of our event features old autos, brand new exotic vehicles, hot rods, muscle cars, ex-military vehicles, and new cars of almost every make. Airplane and car owners are urged to display their vehicles for judging, and we award trophies in many categories.
We are the Simsbury Flying Club, and proceeds from this event help keep our airport in operation. We are a non-profit, all-volunteer group, and receive no funding from any governmental agency. We are grateful for assistance by Porter and Chester Institute for our Car Show, by Chapter 324 of the Experimental Aircraft Association, and by our many Event Sponsors. This website will provide you with information about our event.
