Flying Musicians at Heli-Expo

By Janice Wood · February 5, 2012 ·

The Flying Musicians Association will be in Dallas for the 2012 Heli-Expo Feb. 12-14.

FMA performers will entertain at the Hilton Anatole Hotel for the exhibitor reception and prior to HAI’s “Salute to Excellence” Awards Dinner. John Zapp, co-founder of FMA, said, “Opportunities for FMA members at such a prestigious event as HAI’s Heli-Expo brings light to FMA’s mission and will no doubt encourage organizations to help us pursue our mission and goals.”

The Flying Musicians have created an atmosphere where enthusiasts of both aviation and music can converge to share their passions while enjoying a great aviation event in Downtown Dallas. Zapp added, “We are helping to create new engineers, scientists and aviators by sharing our combined passion for music and aviation with students in high schools and colleges and by opening Flying Musicians chapters throughout the country.”

The Flying Musicians Association, Inc. took off in 2009 by blending two passions: flying and music. The mission of the organization: “Pilot Musicians sharing their passion while encouraging and educating youth (& adults) in the science and art of aeronautics and music.” College chapters have begun to take flight around the country.
