The second annual Wings and Wheels event hosted by the Columbiana County Airport on Saturday brought out car, motorcycle and plane enthusiasts of all ages. Attendees were able to view classic cars, motorcycles, and vintage planes. The Luck of the Irish Douglas C-47B Skytrain, a vintage military transport vehicle brought in the Air Heritage Museum was one of the more popular attractions. Attendees were able to stand near the runway and watch planes take off/land and view skydivers. Fire departments from Calcutta, Westpoint and Madison Township were present. A Chinese Auction and a 50/50 raffle were held. The Calcutta Volunteer Fire Department had Solace, the puppy that will be trained for search and rescue, at the event for people to meet. All proceeds from the event will go toward the training for Solace.

Starting at $3.75/week.
