About the STEAM Experience

Explore the science and excitement of flight with the Extreme Flight STEAM Experience, an interactive aviation activity led by airshow performer Patrick McAlee. This hands-on program introduces kids and families to the world of aviation through fun, educational activities that combine science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM).

Visitors can try flight simulators, experience virtual reality flying, and take part in creative aviation activities designed to spark curiosity about how airplanes fly.
