I will do my best to get up there (it is about a six hour flight with no stops, so it would basically take one day to get there (I am old enough that I need several stops with a flight of that length!)...

I wanted to fly my Husky, but weather and the pesky ADSB mandate interfered. Maybe next year!

Fly your A-36 there, plenty of room to get in and out. I have taken my Widgeon and T-6 in and out of there.

Kurt, I flew the F33C there and camped. I was very near the STOL section in Vintage. I sold the A36... couldn't afford 2 Bonanzas

Ok everyone, Kent is working on some cool fly outs and we are finalizing everything. It would be best to start showing up Friday and leave Sunday afternoon. We are planning flyouts for Saturday and Sunday with social gathering bonfire in the evenings. Pancake breakfasts in the mornings before flyouts. All the details are being worked out. Sooooo, with that being said, who’s in? Post again if you already posted. Would like to get some rough numbers. This is going to be a fun fly in for the Husky owners, don't miss it!

I posted on the FB owners page about the event. Will see what sort of response we get there as well.

Just to add to the list of reasons to join us for the East Coast Husky Fly-In, we have received permission to fly in to Old Rhinebeck on one of their airshow days. If you haven’t been to Rhinebeck, it’s something EVERY pilot should see.

The plan is to fly into the show from Crow Island before the official start. (11am works best). Catch the show and then fly back to Crow. You won’t be disappointed! They can handle however many Huskys we bring, so let’s make it a good turnout.
The Saturday show has flights of a Jenny, the insanely perfect and accurate Spirit of St. Louis they recently finished and a bunch of other 1910s type aircraft. They have food on site and a museum and two gift shops.
it’s a grass strip that’s easy enough to get into. 2200’ long. Landing there is by permission only, and that’s taken care of!
So come on out to the Friday/Saturday and Sunday Husky East coast fly-in!

Living History - Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome
We entertain and educate by preserving over 60 vintage aircraft, many antique automobiles and motorcycles, and related memorabilia in a classic small town airport setting.
