2002 EAST TEXAS AIR SHOW

Post by BOB DUNN »

'THIS IS TO ALERT EVERYONE TO THE EAST TEXAS AIR SHOW
AND FLY-IN TO BE HELD 27 & 28 APRIL, 2002. I AM THE
COORDINATOR OF THE EVENT. I ALSO FLY A PT-19, AND HAVE
ANOTHER WITH THE REBUILD JUST GETTING UNDER WAY.
IT WOULD BE TERRIFFIC IF ALL THE FAIRCHILDS (OR AT
LEAST A LARGE NUMBER) WOULD COME IN FOR THE EVENT.
THIS YEAR, WE HAD AIRCRAFT IN FROM ARIZONA TO ALABAMA.
WE ALSO HAD 68 AIRSHOW AIRCRAFT, INCLUDING THE MATS
C-121
(CONNIE), B-17, A-26, CORSAIR, C-46, LODESTAR,
HUDSON,B-25, SOME VERY RARE AIRCRAFT INCLUDING TWO
N3N'S, TWO ORIGINAL TIGER MOTHS, T-6'S, BT'S,
PT-13,17,
4 PT-19'S, V-77, JRB, YO-55'S, LOTS OF L-BIRDS, 4
GREAT AEROBATIC ACTS, INCLUDING T-28 FORMATION ACRO,
EXPERIMENTALS, HOT AIR BALLOONS & MORE, PLUS A LOT OF
GOOD TIMES.
WE HAD LOTS OF FLY-INS. CAMPING IS AVAILABLE ON THE
AIRPORT & WE ALSO PROVIDE SHUTTLE BUSES TO TOWN.
FLY-IN REGISTRATION IS ONLY $5.00 PER PERSON. PLENTY
OF FOOD AT THE AIRPORT.
IF A "FAIRCHILD FLY-IN" CAN BE ARRANGED, IS THERE
ANYONE WHO WOULD BE "IN CHARGE?" IF IT IS A ORGANIZED
OR SEMI-ORGANIZED FLY-IN, PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE
CONTACT PERSON.
NEXT YEAR, WE ARE ADDING A "FLY MARKET." $20.00 FOR A
SPACE FOR BOTH DAYS.
THE EVENT WILL BE HELD AT THE NACOGDOCHES, TEXAS
AIRPORT (OCH). ONE 5,000 AND ONE 3600 FOOT RUNWAY.
INFORMATION WILL ALSO BE ON A WEBSITE AND THERE WILL
BE A TOLL FREE NUMBER TO CALL FOR INFO BEGINNING IN
OCTOBER. I WILL POST THAT INFO THEN.
HOPE ALL FAIRCHILD PILOTS WILL MAKE AN EFFORT TO
ATTEND. WE WOULD ALSO LIKE SOME FLY-BYS. MAYBE IT
COULD DEVELOPE INTO AN ANNUAL AFFAIR.
