There are 3 Monument valleys that Google Earth shows, two are in Arizona close to me and one is in Utah.

Can someone  tell me where is the Fly-In?

 If its in AZ then I can get there easy with my Beech Sierra.

Now if the question is silly for whatever reason I apologize in advance. I always thought it was in Utah but now I ain't sure, after seeing the video that John linked us to.

Captain Ron,



This answer is both.  The airport is at Goulding's Trading Post which has its own runway.  There is a hotel, camping area, restaurant, resort, and gas/covenience store. Identifier is UT25.  Goulding's is located just north of the state line.  You cross the the main highway to the access road to the actual MV entrance.  You cross into Arizona on the access road.

Note: land to south, TO to north (up against butte)



Been there by car.  This will be first time by air.  Excited!



Hope this is helpful.

I know many pilots and a few true aviators. There is a distinct difference that I have the greatest respect for.

Don't know about 3 monument valleys,,,,   we will be going to an area

between 4 corners and lake powell. Right on the ut,az border. 

N 37  12.007   W  110  12.049    or there about.   The airport is on most

maps  but because it is private some gps's don't gave it in the database.



Do not archive.

Well it looks like a decent size airport. I guess it will take me about 3 hours to get up there from KFHU. When is the Fly In going to start?

Or is everybody there already?

Landing a plane and being married - a few smooth moments mixed with a lot of rough ones.

Should be able to land on 4,000 feet of pavement.



Us Kolbers liked it better when it was still dirt, except for a very short 

part on the south end.



Most of us try to get there Thursday, 14 May.  The official dates of the 

Unplanned/Unorganized Kolb Flyin is Friday, 15 May through Sunday 17 May.



I know of a dozen or so folks that are not there already.  I leave in the 

morning.  Takes me about 20 hours flight time over a period of 2.5 days.
