2016 Air Race Classic

The 2016 Air Race Classic will be June 21-24. This event is an annual all women cross-country air race with a route of usually 2,200 miles or more. This year, Air Race Classic, Inc. marks the organization's 40th year of racing competition. To commemorate this milestone, the 2016 race salutes its college and university teams by stopping at airports that are near to or affiliated with an aviation program. Dexter B. Florence Memorial Field Airport in Arkadelphia will be one of these stops to honor Henderson State Aviation! Visit http://www.airraceclassic.org/about-the-stops.htm for a full list of locations.
