National Aviation Day Fly-In & Pancake Breakfast
Redlands Airport (KREI) August 24, 2024

This is to celebrate the history and development of aviation. Orville Wright, who together with his brother Wilbur, made significant contributions to powered flight. The proclamation directs all federal buildings and installations to fly the US flag that day and encourages citizens to observe the day with activities that promote interest in aviation.
