Last year the event received 3,000 applications for 200 openings, recording a fifteen-to-one rate of successful application. It was by far the most popular event in the aviation exhibition. This year we have increased the number from 200 to 504, so more people can experience flying in a light aircraft. Among the 504 chosen to fly, 96 will get a chance to fly in a light aircraft while 408 will win a trip in a helicopter.
The flight experience will continue for six days from May 5 to 10 during the aviation exhibition. Each trip will last for approximately 10 minutes including time on the ground.
All people above school age are welcome to apply. Write an entry about why you deserve to win a trip along with a short self-introduction, the date you wish to fly, time, aircraft type (light aircraft or helicopter) and submit it to the aviation exhibition website.
