Default 4th Annual Cedar Meadows fly-in, RESCHEDULED Jun 4, 2016

The Mid-Atlantic has had an unusual amount of rainfall this spring. And more is expected this week. The grounds are simply too soft to support the traffic.
Thus we've rescheduled to:

Saturday June 4, 2016

Add this grass strip to your resume.

Located just a few miles from either Winchester, VA or Martinsburg, WV.


We had about 15 airplanes last year, let's see if we can do better.

Lunch at 11am until everything and everyone is gone. Catered BBQ, no charge or donation.

RW 9/27 (left traffic) is good turf 3000' X 80' and we monitor 122.9. Cedar Meadows is not on the sectional, so find Highview (61VA) and we are about 1 mile NE. RW 09/27 parallels the RR tracks. There is another N/S grass strip north of the RR tracks...don't land there.

Rest room available. Camping is authorized. Building lots available.

Jim,

I could use a lat/long fix. I don't know the area at all. Looks like an interesting day trip from VKX where I hanger my RV7.

Default Lat/Long

Coordinates I use:

Lat 39.243059 N Long 77.991131 W

Or the old fashioned way:

Martinsburg VOR (112.1) 225 degrees at 12.4 miles.

Highview can be hard to find, but the best landmark is Summit Point Motorsports Park. The photo I uploaded was taken looking down RW 27 right over the race track complex.

Thanks for the coordinates. I hope to see you all there. I might even check out a couple of the available home lots. I'm nearing retirement and would love having my plane in the "garage."

Would try to arrive with a Formation Flight again but I am signed up to help out with a Formation Clinic in Lee's Summit the same weekend.
