Thousands of airplanes were already here, and all those pilots couldn't wait to start buying new gizmos and gear at the Fly Market, even as vendors worked to get set up before the deluge to come. So much is on the agenda for the next seven days that a visitor would have to be moving faster than the speed of light to take it all in. Jets, biplanes, airliners and antiques of all sorts fly low passes over the runways, while tents and hangars are filled with the latest in airplanes and avionics. NASA, the FAA, and seemingly every aviation company in existence will be hosting a booth or exhibit. Thousands of aircraft, each with its own story, demand admiration and attention.
Aerobatic flyers offer spectacular shows every afternoon.
