From a B-25 bomber to a robot dog named Yimo, this weekend's Aeronautics and Engineering Expo had something for every age. ✈️

Families spent the day at the Kent State University Airport exploring historic and modern aircraft, taking airplane and simulator rides, flying drones and building everything from paper airplanes to mini rockets with our student organizations.

For more than two decades, the Expo has opened the airport to the Stow and Kent community, and it's one of our favorite days of the year. Thank you to everyone who came out, and a special thank you for all of the individuals from the Kent State College of Aeronautics and Engineering for hosting such an incredible event! We'll see you next year. 💙💛
