2013 FANTASY FIELD FLY-IN
Fantasy Field Airstrip FA99 - Chehalis, WA.
Hello to All!
Here it is, your official invitation to our Fantasy Field Fly-in hosted by Kelly and Terry Sullivan.
Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 22nd.
Overnight camping for Friday flyers always available and encouraged! Get up early for some local “bar-hopping” (gravel bars, that is) before all the fun begins later.
We always have such a great time at this event.
In 2011, we had over 60 planes fly in! (almost 170 people..) Everybody had a great time and as always, we ate good too! There were amazing side dishes (that I managed to get some of the recipes for!) and some really scrumptious desserts.
We love having this fly-in, because it is more than just aviation: it feels more like a big family barbecue. Young and old, pilots, teachers, doctors, beauticians, engineers, blue collar and more. We all had a great time together and enjoyed the sun, good food, friends and family, flying and fun.
This is what grass-roots flying and fly-ins are all about. Nothing commercial - everything home-style, comfortable and fun!
Wear your flip-flops and a Hawaiian shirt, and don’t forget a hat.
As always, we will provide the "grill items" and beverages.
Please bring a side dish, salad or dessert, whatever your specialty is, we know it will be good!
We will be set up with restroom facility, plus a wash-up station and we are hoping to provide more shade areas for people to relax under. We will still have plenty of off-street parking for those who choose to drive in. And yes, there will be camping sites available, especially for those who want to stay afterwards for "happy hour", hangar talk and Kelly's late night poker game. So bring a tent, stay the night, and we'll have pancakes in the morning!
Last time we had pilots come in from as far away as British Columbia, Eastern Idaho and Southern California. We enjoyed such a wide representation of our aviation community; from certifieds to experimentals, ultralights, trikes and 'chutes. We would love to host a balloon (hint-hint), or maybe even another impromptu fly-by (like we had the first year, by a "colorful" group of Navions.) The trees at the far south-east end of the runway have been cut back, providing a greater wing-span for larger aircraft.
Fantasy Field Airstrip is a private field and is on the Seattle sectional. Our only request is that you leave your pets at home so that we have no mishaps with aircraft, support vehicles or local animals.
The coordinates are:
N 46*35.270' W 122*51.946' RUNWAY 10/28
We cannot wait to see you here again.
Until then, wishing you all good flying and smooth air!
