CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – The Clarksville Regional Airport hosted a new event for the community on Saturday: their first Just Plane Fun Day.

A number of different types of airplanes and helicopters were stretched across the area of Outlaw Field just outside the airport’s terminal. The event featured local vendors, food trucks, inflatables, and, for a fee, visitors could take a ride in an airplane or helicopter.

“That was the big draw for us, to make sure it was free admission so everybody from the Clarksville-Montgomery County community could come out,” said Airport Accounts and Marketing Manager Toni Chambers. “They could take a load off, get some food, some drinks, and just be aware that we have a functioning airport here in Clarksville.”
