The Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) will host the annual AMA Expo East at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus, N.J. on February 22-24, 2019. The three-day event offers new and seasoned hobbyists of all ages hands-on opportunities to build and fly model aircraft and drones. This includes demonstrations at the indoor flying cage and how-to sessions led by expert modelers. Visitors can also enjoy the boat pond and RC cars, and kids will have the opportunity to build airplanes and rockets in the Make N’ Take booth.
AMA Expo East features a guest speaker series, including Eric Boehm, Curator of Aviation, Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum; Matt Chapman, aerobatic and commercial airline pilot; Mason Hutchison, design engineer, Scaled Composites; and Rob Romash, inventor and president of Eclipse Toys.
In addition, AMA Expo East includes over 60 exhibitors and a three-day Swap Shop where local modelers can buy and sell unique models and collectibles. AMA will also be hosting the RC Resale Hangar to benefit the AMA Foundation’s educational efforts.
Free admittance to this event is offered for kids 12 and under, uniformed Girl and Boy Scouts, active military personnel with valid ID, Navy Sea Cadets and Civil Air Patrol.
