As part of Goodyear's celebration of the 100th anniversary of its iconic blimps, the company's Wingfoot One, wearing a retro color scheme, visited 蹤獲扦's Aeronautics & Engineering Expo on Sept. 6.

The annual expo offers an opportunity to view unique visiting aircraft and learn about the airport and learn about the programs offered by 蹤獲扦's College of Aeronautics and Engineering
