EVENTS

NEW Event at Ford Airport!

June, 13, 2026

Summer Fly-In and Flour Drop!

 

On International Young Eagles Day, Kubick Aviation and EAA Chapter 439 are planning a full day of exciting aviation action. Pilots from across the region will fly in for the fun, with a Flour Drop and STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) competitions as thrilling highlights for the community to enjoy.

In the Flour Drop, pilots make a low-altitude pass and release a bag of flour, aiming for a target near the runway. The STOL competition challenges pilots to see who can take off in the shortest distance and land in the shortest rollout from touchdown to a full stop.

This will be a family-friendly event, so Dickinson County — save the date for Saturday, June 13, 2026!
