The 2012 Airport Fly-In was a great year for crowds and fun.  An early low cloud cover may have limited the number of planes, but it didn't limit the fun for the community, families or pilots.  There was a great variety of planes, wooden planes for the kids, a yummy pancake and sausage breakfast, a highly successful Young Eagles program including flights with the kids after the event was over, an internet cafe provided by Technology For All for flight simulators and other piloting games, other guessing games to play, and a beauty contest for the airplanes.  All and all a great time.

Next year, the Friends of the Airport plan a lunch.  For photos of the event go to www.facebook.com/Fly84R or search for 84R Smithville Municipal Airport.
