2008 ILA Air Show Sets New Records
The International Aerospace Exhibition always provides the public with a rather impressive display of this sector of the industry. This year’s exhibition in Berlin was no different.

While that was only slightly less people than two years ago, it would seem that there was quite a big increase in the number of trade visitors this year.

Ensuring safety in flight has always been a full-time job and a lot of avionics systems have been dedicated to the monitoring of navigation, communication and other essential flight systems.

Book Your Ticket to the Dayton Air Show
Every year the Dayton International Airport in Dayton, Ohio, is flooded with thousands of people as they attend the Dayton Air Show. A more appropriate venue could not have been chosen. The city was home to the Wright Brothers and so it was in this very area that the first successful flight in a powered plane by Orville and Wilbur Wright took place. This exciting historical aspect of the city’s history is often detailed in a flight exhibition that is provided by the Wright Company.
