By now I believe most flyers are home from this years EAA
AirVenture, so this is a good time to post some more info as the flyin is
only 2 days from now.
Flyin details are as follows:
DATE: This coming Saturday, August 11
They have ample ramp space for
parking. It is the nicest FBO on the field. They have just
completed a new 100 X 120 attached hanger addition (not in the attached pic) and
are currently adding a 2-story 20,000 square foot "Art Deco" style office
addition.
Breakfast is various fruits, breads, pastries, and juices. Lunch
will be served from a look-a-like San Francisco street car which has
been converted to an outdoor restaurant (AeroDiner) located at the FBO (see
attached pic). This year it will be situated in front of the hanger
building near our ramp parking. Everyone will be able to order from
their standard lunch menu. The cost varies from about $4.00 to
$6.00. We will also have coolers of bottled water and
sodas.
Medford Air will provide discounted fuel for our
gathering at $4.25.
Typical temperatures in Medford in July are morning lows of about 60 and
afternoons near 90. The forecast for Saturday is 57/89 with a noon
temperature of 75.
The airport is towered Class D with the main runway,
14/32, 8,800' X 150' at 1,335 ft. The airport tower is Lancair
friendly and they know you are coming. They are familiar with formation
arrivals and overhead breaks.
Medford Air is located adjacent to the end of runway 27 (the cross
runway). Exit the main runway (14/32) to the left at Alpha 4 or 5 and look
for the big FBO building with the green awning (see attached pics).
We will be there about 7:30 AM. I will have my shoe
fone on earlier, so feel free to call early if you need local weather or
have special a request. (541) 941-0543. Take advantage of the
early morning cool smooth air.
Please forward this info about the event to your Lancair friends
that are not on the LML.
Any questions? Let me know.
