airshow canceled
Hold Short. We'll be back in 2021.
The Valdez Fly In regrettably announces that the 2020 event is cancelled. We had hoped to be able to hold the rescheduled event late June but requirements to reduce exposure to the CoVid virus and the lack of time prevented us from holding the type of event we have become known for. Rather than a restructured event with fewer opportunities for social interaction it was determined best to redirect efforts to planning a renewed fly in for 2021. We appreciate all the attendance and support from the past years and look forward to seeing you all in 2021.
