Over sixty flyers from all over the east coast, and one from Texas, participated in the 11th Annual Fly-In and Fun-Fly at the North Street airfield on Saturday, July 28 in front of a crowd 500 spectators.
The highlight of the annual radio-controlled model plane event is the air show which this year included everything from racers, to acrobatic airplanes, to helicopters and Gary Vaillancourt’s flying lawnmower, a fan-favorite.
“We were worried about the rain, but it held off. That was a big deal. The weather was actually perfect for the show, and a lot of people-from locals to vacationers-showed up to enjoy it,” said event organizer Walt Throne.
