| Description: | This is the 2009 Veterans Day Fly In, held on November 6 & 7, 2009, to honor the memory of all US Armed Forces Veterans with the proceeds to be donated to the Disabled American Veterans. The focus will be on AMA sport pilot participation to include control line, glider, park flyer, helicopters, big electrics and of course the ever popular glow and gas machines. There will be food vendors, RC vendors, and a swap meet on Saturday morning. Noon time presentations will be talks from real WWII heroes. Free to disabled vets & active duty, $2 for vets and $5 all other AMA pilots. Last year we donated over $600 to a returning disabled Iraqi soldier's new home being built by Homes for Troops which is funded entirely by donations and provides specially designed homes, free of cost, to critically wounded members of the US Armed Forces.
The event will be held at the Spacecoast Aeromodeler Flying Park located at the landfill in Cocoa, Florida with very easy access from I-95.
