The 2019 COPPERSTATE Fly-In & Expo was a Resounding Success!
COPPERSTATE and the Buckeye Air Fair 2019 saw in excess of 30,000 people February 8, 9 & 10! That's a sizable increase over past years – and no wonder. With events such as an Airshow, Exhibitors, Sky Shop, Forums, Workshops, Youth Activities, Terrific Food Vendors...its easy to understand why crowds came out every day and flew beautiful planes in from all over the country.
We even won an award — Each year, in and around the Casa Grande area, the Casa Grande Award Program chooses only the best local businesses. We focus on companies that have demonstrated their ability to use various marketing methods to grow their business in spite of difficult economic times. The companies chosen exemplify the best of small business; often leading through customer service and community involvement. COPPERSTATE Fly-In won the Best of 2019 Non-Profit Organization category.
