SMAC201 Planes, Trains, and Automobiles 2019

Planes Trains and AutomobilesWelcome to a special edition of the Stuck Mic AvCast. Today we are live from Planes, Trains, and Automobiles at Plant City Airport in Florida. This event introduced young people to all aspects of aviation. Visitors get to see real & remote control airplanes, model trains, CSX & classic car displays, and flight demonstrations.

The local scouts were able to obtain their merit badges in aviation, and railroading. Additionally young eagles flights were conducted through the local EAA chapter. The Batman Helicopter even showed up. This was a great event for us at Polk State College. The students from the flight team showed up with a 172 and gave away wings to the young future aviators! I hope you enjoy the interviews from the show as much as we enjoyed visiting with our guests. Let’s go outside and enjoy the show!
