“For many of us, travel is nearly a requirement of life. To learn how to travel on our own safely is the entire essence of this event,” says Jeff Herold, Scheyden president and Aviation Expo LLC principal. “We live in a country that has more freedoms than any other country in the world, in regard to personal travel. Aviation truly can be a lifestyle that can take you places.”
