I will be there by car. Plane still far from done, but this event sounds like a great way to meet some fellow NC RVers. Looking forward to it.

We would at the very least provide lunch, fuel is 3.95, and there is plenty of parking. Ideally, we would like one of each RV to drool over. Maybe you'll also make a few new friends! Please let me know if there is any interest and food requests!

Hi Matt, Looks like your wife wants to fly with you. If that's the case, I've noticed the girls seem to prefer the side by side models. If she doesn't want to fly so much and/or there's a lot of fighter pilot in you, you might like the tandem seated RV 8 or RV 4 instead. Just my 2 cents worth.

A couple of comments about flying into 5NC3:
1. Although a private field, no permission is needed, if going to the restaurant.
2. 122.9 is the frequency used there. (It is not listed anywhere but the Pick-n-Pig website.)
3. Check your GPS before departure. The airport is not (was not?) listed on many 430's but is included on my 496. Go figure.
4. CASH ONLY, unless you like doing dishes.

I'll join you guys in a yellow Champ. I just purchased the tail and wing kit for an RV-8 after talking to Bill R., so I'm in the "networking" phase of the build.

Cheers,
Bob

I'm in the "RV Hopeful" category and very new to all this, but I'm hoping to join you all and get a better feel for all the different models that can make the fly-in. My Thanks to Matt in advance for hosting this event. I can fully appreciate this gathering as a prospective builder and owner.

I'm planning to drive at this point (3 hours ETE), and curious what the showtime might be? Would be great to be there for the fly-in!

Look forward to meeting you all!
