    Default Eastern Kitfox Fly in

    I see Cub fly ins all over. Is anyone interested in a Kitfox Fly in In upstate Ny? I am located between Albany and Syracuse . We have a few small airports around me including where I am hangered at 6B4. 1NK7 is also near by and is a RAF airport. It is very scenic with rolling hills to Mtns.

    Hi Fred, I'd be in for a Kitfox fly in and think Boonville would be a pretty cool place to have it. For those unfamiliar with the area , Boonville is on the southwest side of the Adirondack Park which is a huge 2,000,000 acre beautiful park in upstate New York. (as close as us folks out East can get to a mini Idaho.) Would be a very scenic venue to have a fly-in. It is a private strip, do you have an in with the owner to get permission? Think I met you at Sentimental journey in Lock Haven last summer , where we were the red headed step children with our Kitfoxes amidst all those Pipers! Bruce N199CL

    I’m over in western MA. Would love to get together especially if there are some grass strip fly-outs.

    I do know the people at Boonville and the liaison for The RAF is my local instructor. It is listed as private but is an RAF airport so I don't think permission is needed to land there? I did meet you at Sentimental journey but I had to upgrade to a green one this year. I am also flying all winter.

    The Recreational aviation foundation. They are a non profit that takes on air strips to help maintain and preserve them.

    How about a spot that also has a seaplane base? I have floats on my IV in the summer and would like to splash in and join the fun...
