Two Aviation Leaders Help Celebrate "Grass Roots" Aviation In Urbana

AOPA President Phil Boyer joined hundreds of other "grass roots" aviation pilots at the Sport Aviation Association Fly-In at Frasca Field (C16) in Urbana (IL) over the weekend, lauding the effort of sport aviation enthusiasts around the country. The event was deemed a success by the Sport Aviation Association, founded to "promote using the talents and freedoms we enjoy to build and restore aircraft of all types, and to fly and enjoy them with those having similar interests," according to founder Paul Poberezny. Yes, that Paul Poberezny.

Frasca Field is also home to simulator maker Frasca International and houses Rudy Frasca's collection of World War II aircraft in the Frasca Air Museum.

Educational forums included a variety of topics, such as: Building a War Replica Fighter, Carving Props, Aircraft Painting, Aircraft Covering, and Hatz Aircraft.
