We have so many local Kitfoxes here in Eastern WA and Northern ID that I thought we needed to have a Kitfox Fly-In here in the Spokane area. September is our best month for temps and weather.

I thought a hamburger lunch at the Fox Farm would be a good idea. Let's plan on lunch at noon. I would love it if people would like to stay the night for a fly out breakfast on Sunday morning before heading back home. People could even come in on Friday if the wanted; there are lots of fun places to fly locally.

The Farm Farm is just north of Spokane, WA.
It has two runways. The main runway runs N/S and is 2000' long, it is just a little bit lumpy from the clumping fescue grass. Then a crosswind runway is 1400' long and is as smooth as a pool table.

There is a set of unmarked powerlines at the north end so my normal operation is land north and takeoff south, but when the wind comes up use anything you want. The crosswind runway has unobstructed approaches from both directions. Although this place is very Kitfox friendly, it is important to recognize I am asking you to use this at your own risk please.

We have really good neighbors, but still let's be curtious and try not to fly over anyone's house.

For Flyers:
N 47° 54.228
W 117° 32.831

For Drivers:
5037 Glen Grove - Staley Rd
Deer Park, WA 99006

I would like to invite builders, fliers, and interested parties for a little fun.

The agenda as I see it:
1. Lunch at noon on Saturday
2. Fly out breakfast on Sunday morning to Cavanaugh Bay, followed by a short hop over to Sullivan Lake for those interested. We will have coffee at the Farm for early risers.
3. Also on Display will be Aerocets new LSA amphibious float and Chad's recent award winning Kitfox Speedster.

For overnighters:
Feel Free to bring a tent, but if you want to just bring a pad and a bag we will have plenty of floor space in the house and hangar.
The only hotels available are on the north side of Spokane about 20 miles away. We might be able to help with a ride to/from if needed.
We can set up the flat screen out side or in hangar for a showing of either The Great Waldo Pepper or multiple episodes of Black Sheep Squadron.
Dinner would be a pizza night from our local hot spot.

Early arrivals on Friday:
Will be welcomed and a flyout on Saturday morning could be arranged or other ideas may arrise.

*For anyone who does not feel comfortable with our strip I will be glad to come and pick anyone up from Deer Park (KDEW) by car just 6 miles away.

**Don't be surprised if you see other airplanes here other than Kitfoxes. There will be plenty of people interested in what we are doing.
