LoPresti Aerodrome announces the
“First Saturday at LoPresti” series of Hangar Talks

 LoPresti “The world’s leading provider of aviation PERFORMANCE solutions” is delighted to host a series of events to be held the first Saturday of each month at the LoPresti 20,000 square foot facility at the Vero Beach, Municipal Airport (KVRB),  the clinic series will cover various topics designed to help you fly faster, higher, safer and farther. (After all, that’s what it’s all about, right?)

Why First Saturday?

The founder of the company, Roy LoPresti, had a life long love of aviation.  As a boy of 5 he announced to his parents, he was going to "design airplanes".  A bold statement from the son of poor first generation immigrants. But sure enough, he entered NYU at 16 and graduated at 19 with a degree in aviation engineering.

As a boy, Roy hung around airports and airplanes every chance he got. However, what was possible and even common 60 years ago, is neither today. Roy bemoaned the loss of innocence and the lack of places for kids and pilots to meet.   So we opened "LeRoy's Cafe" as a place for pilots and the community to "Hang Out". Later we added First Saturday to formally bring the two together once a month with a full breakfast, an interesting topic and a guest speaker. Any income we generate goes to a charity or a worthy cause. In this way we get to give back to the community and provide a place for pilots to gather. Best of all we get to do what Roy wanted most...to share the dream of flight.
