Visitors look over one of the vintage aircraft at last year's Cracker Fly-in at Lee Gilmer Memorial Airport Saturday in Gainesville.
From monoplanes to biplanes, and helicopters to jets, the 44th annual Cracker Fly-In on Saturday will have something for aircraft enthusiasts, collectors and restorers, no matter how young or old. “This is kind of a car show for airplanes,” said Winn Fletcher, a member of the Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 611, host of the event. The group anticipates more than 2,000 visitors.
