Great job Tom with the promo video. This is a great rally for adults as well as for kids and makes a great weekend trip.

Rob and Gayle Sunde are hosting this rally with Art Kudner. More details are found on the WDCU website.

Sorry that we can't be there in person....we will be thinking of you.

Have fun!

Sonia

Oh, too bad I didn't know a few months ago. Now committed to be in Yukon on the way to Alaska then, or I'd definitely have been there!

What To Do?

Hey All

I want to come to this rally this year. But what to bring my Airstream or my Cessna 182. Man what a dilemma

Dale,
If you fly-in with a little camping gear, I'm sure you can set-up camp in one of the hangers. And no problem getting a ride into town. Check with our hosts.

Is there any bathrooms or a shower there? I know it just a small airport.

If you fabricate wings for the AS can you tow it with the Cessna? Like a banner?

Problem solved!

Anyone else getting excited for this?

I discovered last night that our trailer has a flat tire (sigh) but the plan is to just use the spare if we have to (if I can't get it repaired/replaced before then) - we do not think this will impact any Airstreaming.

You might be interested

The Out among the Stars Bluegrass Festival is on the weekend before July fourth. It has a grass airfield RIGHT next to it. Some pilots have been
tent camping underneath their wings. so if you like to fly and are looking for a destination ( Benton Pennsylvania ) here is a flyer ( pun intended )

Well, apparently the Video is really important..

As leader of Rally of 1 to 2012 Golden West Flyin/Airshow north of Sacramento last weekend, I am going to work on enhanced PR for the 2013 edition, tentatively scheduled for the second weekend in June.. This was one of the 6 or 7 major EAA linked Regional Fly-Ins, but has fallen on hard times due to weather and underwhelming promotion over past couple years...

For Airstreams, you can be 25' from active taxiway (FAA Minimum due to Air Show Security/Protection) with 30A electrical hookups (12 hours/day to charge batteries and run A/C in afternoons), but no water or sewer. Dry camp sites without power are $10/night.. Breakfasts and Dinners served each day, and showers set up in single-wide unit for tent campers and plane campers... Military showed up with FA-18 and nearby Beale AFB sent a U-2 over for low pass and max performance climb.. B-17 from Phoenix there all weekend, offering rides and tours... Pictures show FA-18 taxiing past open door of Airstream, and landing with Airstream and awning in foreground...
