Delayed, but not forgotten, this is the
first notice for the 3rd Annual Lancair gathering this summer in
Medford, Oregon (MFR). (I've been out of the loop lately with the passing
of my mother and tending to my father who has the big 'C')
Since there is no Lancair Redmond
Fly-in Labor Day weekend this year, Saturday, August 16 is
the date we have set. It should be doable for all as it is well
after the EAA Northwest Arlington Fly-in in early July, 2 weeks after
Air Venture in late July, and after the Hillsboro Airshow. The
16th is (I think) free of other aviation functions. So set aside
the date.
We will again host the flyers
and builders at the nicest FBO on the field, Medford Air (the same FBO
as last year) . Breakfast and lunch are planned to
accommodate all flyers and builders regardless when they arrive and
depart. Because of late morning marine layer issues at some coastal
departure airports (California), as well as the afternoon temperature
in August in Southern Oregon, some flyers may choose to stay the night and
depart in the cool Sunday AM weather. Hotel discounts are available
(Rogue Regency). There are two hotels within walking distance of
the FBO (recommend Marriott Courtyard). Both truck fuel and self service fuel is
available.
More details at a later date.
Just wanted to get that date set for everyone's advance planning for the
summer. I will post this announcement to individuals e-mail
addresses.
