Status: offline 		Since the float planes are highly specialized, let's post our Events, Fun Fly's,
Meets, ect. here as well as the other places, and see how it works out.

Use this thread only to post them.

Unless someone complains....we'll have our own listing. That way we don't
have to look all over the "Universe" to look for the Float Meets.

Don't forget to post your Events in the other places too !

Dave.

Joe Nall, most don't think of it as a float fly but it is, also. May 12-15. Woodruff, SC. Channels 22, 23& 24 only. IMAA rules apply. Great place to float fly. Dealing with the largest fly-in along with it could be considered great if you like to see big crowds, bad if you don't like the crowds and want to relax and fly.

KCRC, Knoxville TN May 15. Great small flyin unfortunately on the same weekend as Joe Nall.

Smith Lake flyers, Concord NC, every second saturday of the month, Mays has been cancelled though. Another great small flyin.

Sanford NC, June 12. A good flyin, location in the corner of a lake with trees all around and a power line overhead can be intimidating.
