Ep 399 Beyond the Airshow: How SUN 'n FUN is Shaping Aviation's Future

In this episode of Ready for Pushback, Nik sits down with Eric Crump, Vice President of the Aerospace Center for Excellence (ACE), to explore the organization behind the iconic SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo and its year-round mission to inspire the next generation of aviation professionals. The conversation clears up a common misconception: SUN 'n FUN is much more than a six-day airshow. As ACE's primary fundraiser, the annual event generates the resources that support aviation education, hands-on STEM programs, scholarships, and career development throughout the rest of the year.
