Suwannee County (24J) Pig Roast

[Raptor05121]

EAA Chapter 797 is hosting a Pig Roast for the public and pilots. We plan on having a fuel discount (hoping for <$3.50 prices but I will let you know how low we can get it as the time gets closer) as well as Young Eagle flights.

I would personally love to see some Mooneys come in!



 

For those not familiar with our airport:

Bump to the top. If anyone is able to, I'd like to see some Mooney's stop by. Mine is still in limbo.

Alex, I'll try to be there. Got a couple of things pending right now.

I am hoping to make it, however my government sponsored vacation has been slightly extended, should have been home on Monday.  I also have to replace the vacuum pump replaced when I finally get back.

Going to be in the middle of my annual inspection.

The only excuse I have for not making this is the same excuse I have for not making the fly-in at Lakeland Saturday. Tailgating for the Florida-Kentucky game.

Thanks for checking in, guys. We are offering a $0.25/gal discount, which is around $3.50.

I'll be there flying Young Eagles in a Cherokee.

I saw your plane but I didn't have time to stop in and say hi. We also had two other Mooneys show up.

The EAA guys really pushed the fliers and we had a huge turnout. Myself in the Cherokee, my instructor in his Comanche, and another local pilot in a M20C was flying them from 10-2. I flew 20 kids myself, grand total of 57.

Thanks for stopping in and we hope you enjoyed it.

It was a beautiful day to be out flying, you defiantly were busy with the young eagles, there was a line when we arrived and a longer one after we finished eating.  Nice to see all the young folks taking an interest in aviation.
