Tri-Motor plans coming together, but your help is needed!

This is time for all of us to be proud of our group.  We are bringing this historic plane to our airport in the City of Delaware.  It is shaping up to be a great event.  We have a banner hung at the airport (see below), a hanger to park in, a pilot, and food trucks lined up to make this a fun event for all. We are also going to showcase the 2 flight schools on the field - fixed Wing and Rotorcraft.

Here is a copy of the schedule as it stands.

We can use our help to make this a safe and successful event for all. I’m still looking for people to help out.  Let me know if can contribute your time to any of the days. If you have contacts to fly in groups, please reach out and invite them to the Saturday and Sunday Fly-In. Could also use help with coordinating parking.

 

Thanks and hope to see you there.
