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 °µÍø½ûÇø'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 °µÍø½ûÇø's College of Aeronautics and Engineering.
100 years ago, Goodyear's first blimp was christened on the field where the °µÍø½ûÇø Airport now stands.
Special thanks to Michael Gershe, senior advisor II in °µÍø½ûÇø's College of Aeronautics and Engineering for capturing these spectacular photos!
