The Great Wright Brothers Aero Carnival
Celebrate the Wright brothers and all things aviation at the Huffman Prairie Flying Field
The Aero Carnival celebrates the general time period of the Wright brothers going from the 1890’s to the 1930s’ and 40’s. The event showcases the work of Orville and Wilbur Wright in the development of practical flight and highlights some of the changes that have occurred since then. Huffman Prairie Flying Field is where Wilbur and Orville Wright turned their idea of powered flight into a practical, usable flying machine. Activities include:
- Aircraft Displays
- Carnival Games
- Hay Rides
- Bouncy Houses
The Aero Carnival is presented by Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park in partnership with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the National Aviation Heritage Alliance.
