Departure of the Blakesburg Bendix on Aug. 29, 2023

The Nebraska Chapter of the Antique Airplane Association’s 42nd annual fly-in concluded Tuesday, Aug. 29 with the start of the second-annual Blakesburg Bendix.
Pilots of the participating 1930s- and 40s-era aircraft estimated how long it would take them to fly from Hastings to Red Oak, Iowa, for the day. The planes continued from Red Oak to Greenfield, Iowa, and on to Blakesburg, Iowa, for the Antique Airplane Association’s Invitational Fly-In.
The Blakesburg Bendix honors the Bendix Trophy, a point-to-point race from Burbank, California, to Cleveland, Ohio, founded in 1931 by industrialist Vincent Bendix as part of the National Air Races. The last Bendix Trophy Race was flown in 1962.
