A highlight of the Aviation Museum’s Father’s Day Weekend Fly-In BBQ, held on Saturday, June 20 at Nashua Airport, was a make-your-own-paper-airplane activity, complete with hoops course to test the airworthiness of just-completed aircraft.
The activity, held inside the capacious interior of Hangar 91, was popular with the young and young-at-heart. Below are images of the action captured by photographers Steve Heffelfinger and Norm Beaudette. (If you’d like to have a copy, just right click on any image and “save as.”
Many thanks to our hosts, Infinity Aviation and the Nashua Airport Authority, who helped make this year’s Fly-In BBQ a big success—and a fun Father’s Day weekend activity for hundreds of families!
For more hands-on aviation fun, families can visit the Aviation Museum this summer. We’re located at 27 Navigator Road, Londonderry, N.H., right next to Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. The museum is open Wednesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Sunday 1 to 4 p.m. See you there!
And see you at next year’s Nashua Fly-In BBQ—when we’ll think ahead and get local soft drink distributors to sponsor the paper airplane activity, since we’re using their product as ballast!
