"Five volunteer aircraft from Wings of Mercy, East Michigan flew 89 adults and 40 children, giving many first airplane rides, as well as flying a number of handicapped children," stated Max Emry, Fly-in chairperson.




The crowd also enjoyed the static display of homebuilt commercial airplanes, antique cars, Gold Wing Honda motorcycles and local medical facilities' emergency vehicles.

According to Bob Passage, President of Valley Aero Club, Valley Aero Club donated $5,000 from proceeds to the Bay City James Clements Airport for the purchase of a camera surveillance system."
