Shane Vande Voort submitted this photo and note: “My 9-year-old son Meyer and I had the great opportunity to fly our 1946 Aeronca Champ from Iowa to the annual Grassroots Fly-In at Brodhead, Wisconsin, in 2023. The only thing nicer than the weather were the people and, although we planned to spend just one night, we were having so much fun Meyer wanted to spend two nights in our tent.
