OK folks - mark your calenders.
I'm finally getting my head above water (literally) and want to invite folks to come pass a good time here at Nauga Field.
We haven't been too successful the past couple of years with the weather. Gonna try again for Nov 11, 12, 13. If the weather is favorable, may head out Sunday for a group flight toward Texas coast. Just a suggestion - open to others. If weather acts up again, Nov 18, 19, 20 can be a rain date.
Those that have attended in the past, know how much fun we have. We tend to pass a good time.
For those that haven't attended before need a little pilot briefing on Nauga Field. You have to be short field proficient. Passengers not recommended. Nauga field is 1500 ft with obstacles both ends. Not a problem for Kolbs and pilots that are used to short fields. If you are used to 3000 plus concrete runways, this sight picture will scare the (at)#*^ out of you. Scared me the first time.
We feed you and water you. Even have some T-shirts. You come, the Starhill gang will do their best to take care of you.
I've been so busy with the flood, grandkids and work, that I have had a hard time keeping up with e-mail. If you need to get in touch with me might try calling. Cell -225-505-4353. May have to leave a message because I work shift.
Some details on Nauga Field:

Some videos are available on YouTube if want to view them. See the beginning and end of this one to get a feel for Nauga Field. The dirt work was to get rid of some "whoopties" a year ago.

Just let me know if you plan on attending as we get closer so we can get enough groceries.
Also have a new option now for those that want to visit and may not want to land at Nauga Field. There is a brand new bridge that crosses the Mississippi River right here. That makes False River Airpark (HZR) an 15 minute drive option. We'll come pick you up and deliver you back.

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