Last week's Sun 'n Fun International Fly-In & Expo marked the 36th year of the renowned "Spring Break for Pilots" that takes place annually at Linder Regional Airport in Lakeland, Florida. KLAL becomes the world's busiest airport during the six-day event, attracting an estimated 150,000 to 170,000 aviation enthusiasts who come from North America and 80 other countries to witness one of the industry's most exciting events. We've highlighted some of the on-the-scene action experienced by the Flying crew. We'll look for you at the next big general aviation event, AirVenture in Oskosh July 26 - Aug. 1. You can be sure we'll be there, big red tent and all.
