We had another wonderful "field trip" with our Mom's Group yesterday- to the airport. We got to see the field, touch and go into planes, and even the on site fire station. It was a 5 year old boy's version of heaven on Earth for an hour or so.
A view of the hangar we got to tour:
Here we are inside a private charter plane (this plan can go about 550 miles per hour. The tour guide said we could make it down to Disney World in about an hour and a half, have lunch with Mickey, and be home in time for dinner. I think Brayden was ready to sign up for that part of the tour!!!):
Rhylan seemed rather intrigued with propeller on this one:
I had never given it much thought before, but airports have their own fire departments. We got to tour this as well. The trucks look different than regular fire trucks- they are a lime green/yellow color, not red. This is because they are more easily seen on the airfield when they are this color. They are also equipped differently, and are able to be manned by only one fireman to use a "gun" to extinguish a fire.
Fireman Brayden:
Thank you so much K for organizing this, what a wonderful idea for a trip !!!
