Fly into the Hangar Zone” contest 

In the theme of our conference home, we want put you in the cockpit. Through a contest we’re calling “Fly into the Hangar Zone,” two lucky Big Kansas City attendees will win a certified flight lesson right in the middle of our event.

The experience starts with training on the ground to learn the functions of various cockpit controls, and is followed by in-flight training where you’ll be in control of the airplane, putting your quick training into reality, even assisting with the landing. By the time you join us at the Big Kansas City Middle Party, you’ll be a true Maverick.
