The American Barnstormers Tour is making Alexandria its final stop in a seven-city, four-state Midwest tour on July 3-5.
The free event will feature as many as 20 historically restored vintage aircraft from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s on display and in the air.
The public can come and go as they choose, according to Todd Roth, manager of the Alexandria Airport.
Roth added he is working on getting vintage tractors from the same time period, along with old cars, motorcycles, boats and a fire truck.
Weather permitting, all of the aircraft and vehicles will be on display from 10:00am to 6:00pm each day. Concessions will be available.
The barnstorming pilots, dressed in costumes from their plane’s era, plan to do at least one “parade of flight” on each of the three days. They may also fly over the Lake Carlos boat parade on Independence Day.
Air rides will also be offered for $60 per passenger.
