Members Only - Spirit Airport Tour
Friday, August 29th 11:30am-1:00pm
at the Spirit Airport
Join Progress 64 West for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the Spirit of St. Louis Airport—a cornerstone of regional aviation and economic development for over 60 years.
Originally envisioned in the late 1950s by aerospace engineer and pilot Paul D. Haglin, Spirit Airport was born out of a need for a dedicated business aviation hub outside the increasingly congested Lambert Field. What began as a bold idea in the farmlands of “Gumbo” has grown into a nationally recognized executive airport, serving as a vital link for commerce, innovation, and connectivity in the St. Louis region.
