The carnival will be open to the public from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days.
“The Barnstorming Carnival is a fun, family-friendly event that gets more popular each year, and is a great opportunity for the public to discover the Springfield-Beckley Municipal Airport,” said Airport Manager Seth Timmerman.
More than 5,000 people attended past carnivals, and we’re looking forward to another great turnout this weekend.”
This year, organizers have added a 1932 Monocoupe Model 90 aircraft and a PT-19 built in 1941, according to the release.
A pancake breakfast served by Hustead EMS will be available both days from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Activities for children will include pedal planes, foam glider building, face painting, a bounce house. A balloon tying clown and a magician will also be on site.
