Tuesday Aug 19th was National Aviation Day in honor of Orville Wright's birthday.
Here are some sparks* to create a theme date around flying.
- Eat at a flying/aviation themed restaurant like "WingStop"
- Visit an aviation museum
- Take a relaxing ride in an airplane or sign up for a midair adventure with places that offer dog fight experiences. Vintage Airplane Rides are Awesome.
- Rent movies about flying: Top Gun ('85), The Aviator ('04), Flyboys ('06), Always ('89), Air Force One ('97), Snakes on a Plane ('06), Flight of the Phoenix ('65), The Spirit of St Louis ('57), Flightplan ('05), The Bridges at Toki-Ri ('54), The Battle of Britain ('69), Strategic Air Command ('55), Airplane ('80)
- Go to an airshow.
- Don't forget your flying themed music playlist: "Come fly with me" by Frank Sinatra or Michael Buble, "Danger Zone" - Kenny Loggins, "Fly Like an Eagle" - Steve Miller Band and the list goes on.
