What is Sun \u2018n Fun?<\/h2>\n

Sun \u2018n Fun is an annual week-long aerospace expo for aviation enthusiasts and pilots from all around the world. The expo started back in 1974 as a fly-in event for sport aircraft enthusiasts and was originally limited to pilot who were members of certain associations.<\/p>\n

From there it built into what it is today, a week expo sharing the love of aviation. The corporation that runs the event also grew over the years and now operates a full-time campus that educates the public in aviation and STEM topics through The Aerospace Center for Excellence.<\/p>\n

What is a Fly-In event?<\/h2>\n

Fly-Ins are events where those who are licensed will fly their aircraft to designated places. Usually, these are held near airports that can handle large amounts of plane parking. Sun \u2018n Fun is held on the southwest side of the Lakeland Linder International Airport.<\/p>\n
