Pilots Briefing – 2017


————————————————————————————————
Schedule for July 15th  (see home page for more info)
KBPK – use CTAF frequency 123.0
Big Air will discount fuel prices by $0.25
You may arrive the day before….we will try to find a hangar for your airplane.
Fly-In Flyer: PilotsPropsFlyIn

Mission: 
There’s a feeling out there that flying is only for rich folks and airplanes are very dangerous machines. You can help change these perceptions by bringing your airplane and/or showing up to meet, greet, and inform.

Age Restriction: We will attempt to keep young visitors (< 14) away from the static aircraft display. With an owner’s permission, they may approach that specific aircraft.

Aircraft Specification Sheets: If you plan to have your aircraft on display tomorrow, I will try to find a specification/advertising sheet for make/model. I will print up about 100 sheets for the public to take home. Either send me the PDF file if available or email the make/model and I will try to find a spec sheet.
