Making
the Decision - Fly-In Schedule
We invite you to stop by our displays at any of the major
fly-in/airshows in the United States. Although many builders begin their RV projects
without ever meeting us, and quite a few without ever flying in an RV, this gives you a
chance to meet the staff of Van's Aircraft and ask any questions you might have
face-to-face. Our crew attends all the major events including Oshkosh, Sun 'n Fun, and
Arlington. Demo rides are often available, but the hustle and crowding of the large shows
means that there are no guarantees. Almost any show includes RVs.
If you are unable to see us in person, you are invited to
virtually visit our Oshkosh booth by visiting the Van's@Oshkosh page in the World of
RVs section. You can also virtually view our annual homecoming fly-in, held in
Aurora, Oregon. This page is also located in the World of RVs section.
Below is a list of events which company personnel and/or
demonstrator aircraft are tentatively scheduled to attend. Please keep in mind that last
minute changes could occur. Appearances might also be added shortly before scheduled
dates.
Other RV fly-Ins are posted on our "news
and releases" page.
