A Gathering for Those Who Believe Personal Aviation Can Be Better While the aviation industry continues to celebrate remarkable technological advances and unprecedented innovation, a growing number of pilots, aircraft owners, flight schools, manufacturers, and aviation advocates are asking a more fundamental question: Who will actually be able to participate in aviation’s future? That question will be front and center at the Affordable Flying Expo 2026, scheduled for November 13-15, 2026, at the incomparable SUN n FUN Aerospace Expo campus on Lakeland Linder International Airport. Returning for its second full-scale year, the Affordable Flying Expo has rapidly evolved into one of aviation’s most important forums for examining the opportunities and challenges facing personal aviation in the post-MOSAIC era.
