Did you know that LoPresti has moved it's
headquarters from Vero Beach to Sebastian Florida? That's
right, after more than 20 years LoPresti Aviation's headquarters
is now in it's new home. We have a new engineering
facility and new offices on the east side of the Sebastian
airport. These are state of the art buildings and the
engineering facility is the first "green" hangar built in
Florida. These new buildings offer all of the important
amenities for key buildings in Florida.
How do we like our new airport home?
We LOVE IT. This is a real "Pilot Friendly" airport.
We have low fuel prices, a courtesy car for quick trips.
It's like living at a resort. We have golf, skydiving,
kayaking, fishing all available from the airport. If you
are looking for a place to fly to to have fun, I highly
recommend Sebastian airport. But there is more here than
just pilot friendliness. The local town is full of
friendly "fishing village" citizens. Everywhere you go
there are friendly people.

First
Saturday at LoPresti
Fly in each First Saturday
Great Speakers - Great Food - Great Charities
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.
