Hangar Day
by Gil on Aug.15, 2011, under Flying
Hangar Day was a new idea for Migration with everyone going back to the airport. The Colorado Jet Center main hangar was the site for our exhibitors to display their wares. In front of the hangar air frame vendors had aircraft to fly. Included were Cirrus, Piper, Extra, Lancair, Daher-Socata and Eclipse. There was also a beauty pageant for Cirrus that had been modified. In the hangar every booth space was taken. Buses transported attendees to the airport with the Partners in Command arriving after their class room session at the resort. RJ Siegle CEO of LoPresti announced a new run flat tire for the Cirrus. The keynote speakers for the day were the officers from the Air Force. They flew in the new SR20 trainer and briefed us on this program conducted at the near by Air Force Academy. Lunch was served, door prizes were announced and it was a day to learn about planes, products as well as socialize with fellow COPA members.
