Key Takeaways:

  • AirVenture 2017 was a highly successful "blockbuster show" with massive attendance and positive visitor feedback, indicating the robust health of the general aviation industry.
  • The event showcased significant advancements in low-cost avionics, autopilots, and cockpit systems, rather than many new aircraft introductions.
  • EAA made substantial capital investments in improving the show grounds, adding new facilities and updating existing infrastructure for an enhanced experience.

After Oshkosh last year, many people, including EAA chairman Jack Pelton, proclaimed it perhaps the best AirVenture ever. The show was well-run, hundreds of thousands of visitors poured through the gates and the weather was, for the most part, delightful.
