A fly-in is an event where pilots are invited to "fly-in" their
aircraft and put them on display for visitors and fellow pilots.
Fly-ins can be aimed at specific aircraft, such as taildraggers,
warbirds, experimental aircraft or specific aircraft models, or
they can be open to all. They're sometimes also combined with other
events such as air shows, car shows or airport open houses.
Fly-ins are often organized along with a meal, such as a barbecue
or breakfast fly-in, where food is offered to participants and
spectators for a small donation.
In recent years, Edmonton Airports has hosted Fly-In/Open
House events at both Cooking Lake Airport and
Villeneuve Airport during the summer months. Watch this
website for details about upcoming Fly-In/Open Houses as they are
scheduled.
