Enjoy free fly day at Paine Field

The Flying Heritage Collection presents the second of its scheduled 2012 Fly Days, Pacific Legends Day, today at Paine Field.

This free event begins at noon, weather permitting. You can watch as the expert pilots take to the skies in a meticulously restored Mitsubishi A6M3-22 Reisen (Zeke) and a North American P-51D Mustang.

The flying demonstrations do not include admission to see the collection, but you can take a tour and see other vintage aircraft and Word War II-era tanks and artillery.

Admission to the collection is $12 for adults, $10 for seniors and military, and $8 for children ages 6 to 15. There’s no charge for kids ages 5 and younger.

The Flying Heritage Collection is at 3407 109th St. SW, Everett, at Paine Field. Check the website, www.flyingheritage.com, for other free fly Saturdays scheduled through the end of September.
