2020 Trike Fly-in July 18th - 25th.: Revision
Last updated by Ttabs
And the site for this years fly-in is Methow Valley located in North Central Washington State!!! Pronounced Met-How Valley it will be held on July 18th to 25th!
This is Methow Valley State Airfield (S52) which will be our home for the week. It’s located between Winthrop WA and Twisp.
There is just way too much to say about the diversity of this area in terms of the great flying we’ll all have access to. Here’s a look-see of the area. First - we’ll be nestled right there in the eastern foothills of the Cascades. If you take-off to the west, nothing but serious Cascade mountain flying into raw wilderness areas and elevated snow country. East flying will take you into the glacial moraine and the Ice Age Flood area of Washington State. We will be setting up a tour of the NorthWing Facility so if this is the year to upgrade your old and tired wing (or trike), bring your checkbooks. It’s a 35 mile flight or 1 hour drive to the NorthWing Facility. You will not want to miss this opportunity!!!
Tent sites and RV parking will be available - and there’s an RV park just 3 miles up the road for overflow and dumping tanks. There’s potable water available at the airfield. I’m still working on getting a hangar for the week. Stay hopeful with me on this. 100LL is available at the field - not sure of 91 ethanol free yet. Should be many restaurants in either direction.
I’m sure I missed a whole bunch of people with this announcement so please help me by forwarding this on to all your friends that might be interested in coming. Let’s spread the word !!! Questions? Send me an email.
Please RVSP to me so I can keep an accurate headcount. Let me know if you’ll be RVing, tenting, or motel-ing.
