The fly-in is at 4N7 (Greene NY just north of Binghamton). Cookout on Sat with afternoon flying and general Kitfoxing. Overnight (campfire, etc) and a breakfast flyout for those who are interested.



It's not that far Lynn

The details (from CDE2FLY) 

Looks like the weather will be perfect for an early fall fly-in this weekend. The Greene airport is in great shape and was spared any damage from the recent flood. Binghamton has areas of substantial damage but most roads are back open and business are returning to normal. For those planning on overnight camping, I've got plenty of room at my house (10 minutes from the airport) and can provide transportation between the airport, my place, local restaurants, etc. For those wanting to stay in a hotel, I suggest calling ahead…there are numerous options in the Binghamton area but not sure what the availability is based on both flood damage and rooms booked by contractors. To recap the plans for the weekend:Saturday:· 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM - Arrive at the Greene Airport (4N7). I’ll have lunch (hotdogs, chips, drinks, etc.) on the field.· 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM – General Kitfox discussions/idea exchange, cool mods, hints, tips, hops around the pattern for those interested in some stick time in a particular model, etc. · 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM – Afternoon fly out….planning on heading to Skyhaven Airport (76N)…lots of neat airplanes and generally some Stinson restoration activities underway….30 to 40 minute flight from Greene.· 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM – Dinner back in Greene at a local restaurant…again, I can take care of getting folks around.· 7:00 till?? - Set up camp, bon fire, snacks, etc. at my place.Sunday:8:00 AM - depart Greene airport for White Birch Airport (15 – 20 minute flight) for fly in breakfast. Grass strip tucked into the rolling hills….great views and great food. Following breakfast, we’ll head back to our respective home bases.Let me know if you’re planning to join us so I can plan accordingly for food, transportation, etc.Should be a great time and I’m looking forwarded to meeting some fellow Kitfoxers!

376 miles...nautical...isn't far? Hell, that's Oshkosh distance all  

over again! Oh well, it's only time and money....I'll think about it,

Duh....no, I guess I didn't. I just looked at a chart from a previous  

trip to New York...the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, primarily...and the  

North East fly-in is shorter than that trip. Still thinking about it,  

Dorsal. With my luck with weather, if I plan it, the weather will  

turn sour, and I wouldn't want to jinx the weekend for the rest of  

you guys. : )
