The East Hampton Aviation Association will hold its sixth Just Plane Fun Day at East Hampton Town Airport on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The annual event showcases classic aircraft, vintage warbirds, including a World War II-era B-25 bomber, modern jets, and other unique and historically significant airplanes. Food trucks will be at the airport from the Shinnecock Lobster Factory, Kona Ice for something sweet, and Augies Doggies, a hot dog truck out of Shirley. Raffles will be available for purchase, and guests will have a chance at winning aviation-related and other prizes.

Admission and parking are free. More information about the aviation association can be had by emailing [email protected].
