Rio Creek Airport

  2005 Wings & Things Fun Day

Presented by

On September 17, 2005 the Rio Creek Aviation Foundation (RCAF) held its 1st annual "Wings & Things Kids Fun Day" at Rio Creek.  It was a day to get kids involved in aviation and give them a knowledge of aircraft and what it takes to fly them.

Brian Dauck shows a group of kids the different parts of an airplane at "Wings & Things Fun Day."

The kids learned the 10 basic parts of an airplane did crossword puzzles and word searches quizzing them about the parts they had just learned.  They also got to build a rubber band powered airplane and fly it.

The construction of the rubber band powered airplanes.

First Flight!

Who's airplane flew farther?
