The annual Northwest EAA Fly-In at RVington… uh… Arlington, Washington starts on Wednesday, July 8th and ends on Sunday, July 12th. There will be a dedicated parking area just for RV’s, located on the northern side of the intersection of taxiways Foxtrot and Delta. If you come in through the front gate, you can’t miss it. If you fly in, Ramp Control will guide you. This year, the RV parking area will be almost TWICE the size of previous years! We look forward to comfortably parking all the RV arrivals together. There should be lots of RV’s to ogle!
The Puget Sound Rvators will once again host a hospitality tent in the RV parking area. Present and future RV-ers are invited to stop by, get something cool to drink, and shoot the breeze. On Saturday, we will have our annual hamburger and hot dog cook-out. Condiments, soft drinks, tableware and napkins will be provided. Guests are encouraged to bring a side dish or dessert to share.
All pilots planning to fly in should read the Notam regarding special procedures during the fly-in, easily obtained at http://www.nweaa.org/nweaa/. Please note that there are different special arrival procedures for Saturday and Sunday than for Wednesday through Friday. Be sure to stay away from the west side of the airport during your arrivals and departures. Remember that fly-by’s aren’t allowed until you’ve gotten the fly-by pattern briefing on the ground.
This year’s Fly-in promises to be a great time for all. With daily airshows, exhibits, big RV formation fly-bys, the fly market and much more, there is always something to see and do. With our extra parking space, the hospitality tent, on-site registration, and the picnic on Saturday, you’ve simply got to come!
