Planes, Trains & Automobiles in Plant City

By General Aviation News Staff · March 20, 2013 ·

PLANT CITY, Fla. — On Saturday, March 23, the third annual Planes, Trains & Automobiles event will take place at the Plant City Airport (PCM).

It’s a chance to see airplanes, remote control planes, helicopters, model trains in operation and on exhibit, and classic and exotic car displays. Antique railroad maintenance equipment, train artifacts and memorabilia will be on site for guests to explore.

As part of the EAA Young Eagles Program, kids ages 8-17 will be able to take free airplane flights (limited to the first 150) and Boys Scouts will have an opportunity to earn their aviation merit badge, as well as their search and rescue badge at the event.

There will be activities of interest for the entire family, including food and merchandise vendors, K-9 demonstrations, live entertainment, and a children’s play area.

Admission is free; parking is $5.

The Greater Plant City Chamber of Commerce presents Planes, Trains & Automobiles at the Plant City Airport, 4007 Airport Rd., Plant City 33566.

For more information, contact the Chamber at 813-754-3707 or PlantCity.org
