Destination Flyout Events for 2011
Each year we also have a number of longer "destination" trips. These are perfect ways to get with an instructor to finish up that instrument rating. They also make great vacations! Start planning early, and get that plane (and instructor, if you're looking to turn it into a learning experience) booked! Let the front desk know if you're interested in any of those so we can plan appropriately!
If you're interested in camping under the wing, there is an opportunity starting the Friday before Labor Day in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan at Prickett-Grooms Field (6Y9) in Sidnaw. We'll be showing up the afternoon of 9/2, and probably leaving Sunday, 9/4. That leaves Labor Day itself available for doing stuff at home.
Because of construction at the Mackinac Island (KMCD) airport, we will not have our annual trip to Mackinac Island this year.
For the winter trip, we're going back to the Bahamas in early November! Grant and Leslie discovered a new place on Treasure Key in 2009 that they enjoyed, so we will give that a try. We may also head back to Hawk's Nest on Cat Island or Staniel Cay Yacht Club. If you have places you'd like to visit, let us know on the mailing list! Note that there is a discount offered for multi-night stays at some of our favorite resorts, as long as we book by 8/31.
Please, post your thoughts, ideas, and comments to the Mailing List . Tell us what excites you and what you don't want to have anything to do with. Let us know any ideas that you have or neat places you've been that you think we might be interested in! And there's no reason that the fly-outs need to be "official" A&M events. Use this list as a way to organize some of your friends to fly places with you and us! (Note that this is what the webmaster has done above with the Gaston's Fly-in and the Sidnaw Labor Day Weekend fly-in.)
