    Default Airventure 2012

    It's coming up again, real soon!

    Is anyone interested in another meet and greet, get-together, this year?



    Right now, I am planning on being there for 9 days (Saturday through Sunday) and will be camping in my usual place down across the street from the ultralight farm.

    I haven't decided if I will fly into the main field with a friend or fly into the ultralight field, but either way my yellow Kitfox will be there.

    I am planning on being there for 4 days this year. Not exactly sure when but probably mid week. I would be interested in meeting up with some Kitfox guys.

    Who is planning on flying in and who is planning on driving? Might be nice to get some camp sites together. Unfortunately it will be a couple years before I can fly my kitfox there...

    OK It is official. The time is booked off work and I will be going to Oshkosh on the 25th, 26th, 27th and 28th. I will be driving up from Sarnia, Ontario via Chicago. Since I take delivery of my Kitfox in one week I will spend my time differently this year. Mostly I will spend a lot of time in works shops, talking to vendors that I may be interested in their products, as well as just soaking up the sights and sounds. I would like to check out some of your planes as well. Maybe any who is interested can meet at the Kitfox booth Friday at noon or something? Let me know.

    Sounds great to me too. I'll be there.

    Don't forget if you can make it I highly recommend the "Flapperon society" lunch on Thursday at the seaplane base sponsored by Brett from Airdale. Many experienced builders and flyers of our type of planes.

    Maybe we can move this thread to General for more exposure. Here is something to get everyone excited:
