WAAM Fly-In

[Ramos]

Curious if anyone plans on attending the WAAM fly-in in Hood River, Oregon this weekend? It is scheduled for the 8th-10th. I hope to get down there and walk the parking area as it is free to do so and I have seen what is inside the gates before. I know we have at least one member based there and a few others that are close by. I would love to get a thorough 'tour' of a Model IV from an owner.

I am based at 4S2 (WAAM Fly-in airfield). I don't know of any other Kitfoxes on the field but that would be great to know!

I won't be in town unfortunately but if you're in the area today or next week i'll be more than happy to let ya sit in my model 4.

I'd offer you a ride but I'm currently still in conditional and don't think it'll be ready for a week.

That sounds great, HS87! I am roughly an hour East of you and would be happy to meet at a convenient time for you. I know there is an Avid at your location as of some time this Summer. Possibly a MK4, but not positive on the model.

I made a last minute decision to fly to WAAM. I am hoping to leave Nampa around lunch time. That should put me there about 3:00 pm.

Dang it would have been great to have you check out my plane!

I'll keep an eye out for you. Hoping for Sunday morning.

I need to depart early Sunday morning to get back to Nampa. I am flying to Spokane that evening on a commercial flight for my work.

Maybe I can at least wave to you! :D

It was nice to talk to you Phil at The WAAAM fly-in. Also Cliff from Yelm and the fellow from South Prairie; 4 Kitfoxes. WAAAM had a great turn-out.

Same to you Jim!

They said there were over 300 planes that flew in. The variety of planes was amazing.

I made it down late Saturday afternoon. I saw four Kitfox, one Avid and two Rans S7 aircraft but none of them were attended. Still, always a real treat to do a walk-around.

Anyone know who owns the metallic green Model IV that was in attendance?

Also, did anybody visit with the fella with the plans-built Buttercup? Interesting plane with a really neat history behind the design.

I believe the green model IV belongs to Cliff, from Yelm, WA.

Jim, I recall seeing Cliff and Yelm on the paper prop tag. Is Cliff active on this site and do you know his username?

Thanks, Chuck. It was great to see everything that was there.
