Second Annual "Roar 'n Soar" at Fantasy of Flight invites you to "get your speed on." Sat., Nov. 8, 7 am - 8:30 pm and Sun., Nov. 9, 7 am - 6:30 am. A two-day celebration of classic air, land, and water racing machines and family fun activities.
The best of the best will be performing precision aerial maneuvers high above the skies as vintage flying machines soar above the crowd at breathe-taking speeds of up to 300 miles per hour. Each day, aerobatic shows star the finest giant scale model replica aircraft in the world. The remote-control aircraft perform formation flying, precision aerobatics and aerial combat maneuvers. Vintage race boats speed across scenic Lake Agnes while planes perform aerial stunts overhead while at the Classic Car Corral, you will find vintage auto icons including Jaguar, Austin-Healey, Ferrari, BMW and Porsche. Many dust up the competition in daily slalom races as drivers test their maneuvers through a hay-bale-lined course on the hangar tarmac.
Fun activities are planned for the whole family. Kids can try their hand at flying their own hot air balloon and hang glider simulators in Fantasy of Flight’s “Fun with Flight Center.” Prizes will be awarded for precision landings.
