Choice Aviation hosts many events and air shows each summer in an effort to giveback to the community’s we serve while promoting aviation and our airports. We also host many events and can assist in bringing your event to one of our regional airports. If you or your organization would like to fly in for a conference, or another event, please reach out to us. We would be happy to help.
