This past weekend was Suffolk’s Festival of Flight, a fly-in where numerous pilots of light-sport, home-built, and experimental aircraft gather together. The WWI Nieuport built by the volunteer students at Aviation Institute of Maintenance in Chesapeake, Virginia, was placed on display for the two-day event. Both aviation school students and faculty volunteered with setup and breakdown each day, as well as provided information to the public on the WWI aircraft project’s construction and progress.
