Day 439 Plymouth Air Show 2012

Sharing is caring!

If you are looking to do something with the kids  on  Labor day weekend, then head down to  Plymouth.  The Pymouth Aero Club will host the Plymouth Airshow from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 2, at the Plymouth Municipal Airport.

There will be shows in the late morning and afternoon. The featured performer will be Dan Marcotte and his Ultimate 10-200 biplane. Dan’s show features the Ultimate 10-200 Biplane.  The Ultimate is a unique biplane.  It’s four, full span ailerons provide a 400 degree per second roll rate.  It also utilizes an aileron/elevator interconnect system that produces unique low speed flight characteristics.  Dan enters his maneuvers at speeds of up to 250 MPH.  Stressed for +/- 10 Gs, Dan operates the airplane at G loads of up to plus 7 and minus 6 G’s.  With just the right balance of classic aerobatics, unique tumbles, tailslides, spins, and signature maneuvers, Dan’s show keeps the audience riveted from take-off to landing.  In 2011 Dan added a knife-edge ribbon cut to his repertoire to the delight of spectators!  Dan’s unique background in racing and aviation, his infectious enthusiasm, and his innate ability to become “one” with his machine captivate audiences where ever he performs.

 

Activities will include helicopter and plane rides, a large aircraft static display, a helicopter golf ball drop, kids’ games, flight simulators, exhibitors, food and a raffle. The Coast guard is planning on attending with their latest aircraft.

Attendees are asked to take a food donation for the local food pantry and receive a free raffle ticket. Admission is free but a $5 parking donation is requested to benefit local charities.

 

Ample parking for fly-ins will be provided. The rain date is Monday, Sept. 3.
