8th Annual 2014 Page, AZ. Fly-In
(WOW, Who would have thought, 8 years)
Lake Powell, Monument Valley, Bryce Canyon, Zion, Grand Canyon, Bullfrog Marina Resort...
Make those reservations now. It's time again to work on the Page, AZ Fly-In. We changed a few things last year that added some new fun. We did the river raft trip the day before the actual Fly-In day. It was a great raft trip. I would highly recommend it.
We changed up some of the routes last year which turned out well so we'll do it again.
The Page, AZ. Fly-In date is October 16-19, 2014
We will fly the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, Monument Valley (breakfast), Zion Canyon and Bryce Canyon (breakfast), Bullfrog Marina and Resort (breakfast).
I have blocked off 35 rooms. We will be at the Holiday Inn with a rate of $66 (2 queen beds). I hope to have a record number of CT's and LSA aircraft for our Page Fly-In. Just like last year make the reservations early so you don't miss out and the hotel won't hold all 40 rooms forever.
Do not wait this year. Book it now and you can cancel up to 24 hours before Oct. 16th. Get it booked and reserved, then if you have to cancel you can, but if you wait again then you may not be staying with the rest of us and at your own peril for rates and possibly a different hotel. They book darn near the whole town in October.
You must tell them you are with the "CT Group and ask to speak with Courtney" for your reference and the rate of $66 a night. We will arrive Thursday morning, Oct. 16th. and head home Oct. 19th. Sunday or Monday morning. Breakfast is free in the mornings. This hotel has not only a continental breakfast, but a full breakfast.
I talked to the people at the Ranch House Grill and they will cater our evening meals again. We will have evening meals together Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Holiday Inn Express PAGE-LAKE POWELL
Ask for Courtney or Andrea Smith
751 South Navajo Drive, Page, AZ 86040
928-645-9000
We will fly into the Page airport - KPGA.
We are staying with Classic FBO and with our group we should get a 30 cent discount on fuel.
Classic is not the first FBO next to the runway, but the second one behind them.
The Antelope Canyon tour and the Dam tour is open if anyone wants. These are land tours.
You guys are welcome to invite other planes that are not CT's and everyone is welcome. Find some more LSA's.
I will develop GPS coordinates for all our routes and post them so you can enter them in your own GPS. I have a plan to better deal with all our planes for our flights so they are not crowded in the mornings or evenings.
Don't miss this, we always have fun.
p.s.
I would like everyone coming to shoot me an email so I can put together a roster, make name tags and set up call signs like we did last year. If you attended last year and we had your personal info then just say you are coming. If you did not come last year then I would like the email to include: N#, Names of you and co-pilot, cell phone number, city, state.
This is a big help for me to last year to organize our fly outs since we have so many planes and gives old friends and new friends a way to contact each other if need be.
Thanks,
Roger Lee
Something new has been added. (This was lots of fun last year)
You must refer to this Reservation Number: 70361 and tell them you are with the CT group.
A 1/2 day raft trip on Wed. Oct. 15th from Glen Canyon Dam down to Lee's Ferry.
The trip starts in Page (at 1100 hrs) where we will take a shuttle bus down below the dam. We will board a 20-22 person raft and travel down river for about 1.5 hrs. and get out for drinks and photos. Then back in and on down close to Lee's Ferry. Then we turn around a high speed boat back to the start. There is no white water just a nice trip down through the canyons. The cost for all of this is $87 a person. The phone number for the reservations is 928-645-9175.
Don't be left out, I know of at least 6 people that have already signed up so don't be late to make the boat, sign up now. They have a 48 hr. cancellation policy and you get it all back except a $7 charge. This means you will have to arrive in Page Oct. 15th.
BRING YOUR HAT, SUNGLASSES AND SUNSCREEN.
Here is the link: http://raftthecanyon...day-raft-trips/
What are you waiting for, let's go, I'm already signed up. 
Saturday Bomb drop and spot landing fun at Cal-Black airport a few miles NE of Page, AZ.

Hi Roger
Just wondering if a Canadian with a KITFOX Vixen would be welcome!!!
I am presently building an enclosed trailer for my Vixen with the intention of traveling to AZ for a few months this winter. I am towing it with a Sprinter Campervan.
I would organize my trip to come through the Page area at this time.. I could arrive in time to setup my plane and join you CT folks on the flying trips.

Hi Don,
I usually trailer my Kitfox to Page at the same time as the CT flyin and
have used the large gravel area just past the main transient ramp to park
the trailer if the ramp is expected to be loaded.
Last year the lady who had airport management duties and wears other hats
for the town was concerned about having room for my rig until I negotiated
an arrangement to have the on site airport maintenance guys work with me
to make sure I was not "in the way". If you end up using the gravel area
expect to deal with sand burs.
By the way, I will do two forums at Air Venture this year, the usual tips
on touring by motorhome and folding wing plane. Not much changed in the
forums since the last forums at Sun N Fun, Sebring and Copper State.
Hope you get to have FUN!
