The first thing we headed for was this blue police helicopter. Daddy was so proud of me. Notice that I'm in the right seat, the pilot's seat in a helicopter!
When we got out of the helicopter, we looked down the parking ramp and saw Mr. Steve and his wife Brittany. I took off running toward them and gave Mr. Steve a big hug!
We talked with them for a while and then went around to see other airplanes. We climbed aboard the FAA's DC-3 (which we've been aboard before but it never gets old), and got a window seat!
This DC-3 was used by the FAA for flight inspection of navigational signals, and I got to pretend to be the "Flight Inspection Recorder".
They had a lot of activities for kids, and now I'm finally old enough to start doing some of them. Here Daddy and I make a paper rocket that we launched by stepping on an empty water bottle. It went really high!
I was fascinated by the miniature control tower and light gun, but needed Daddy's help to stretch way out there!
I was glad we got to show Mommy how much fun Aviation Day is!
