Great Idea Jeff ! ! !

An annual event would be fantastic. It would compliment Bill's annual SITP.

I am interested as well, but not sure if I can make it. I may be out of the area.
I hope this a beginning of a wonderful event.

Sure would be great to have more gatherings in the bay area, like a coffee and cars theme in the early morning.

Please keep me / us posted.

I just got permission to move 3 or 4 planes, and we can park on the ramp at the club for an impromptu meet..and catch up as a group at the club BBQ on the 22nd this month.

June 22
Squadron2 Flight Club
2655 Robert Fowler Way
San Jose, CA 95148
Phone: 408.648.2008
My Cell: 831 454 6712

Start: 10a
End: Eh..whenever, things dry up around 3pm, noon being the height of course.

Should be plenty of burgers and dogs for everyone..bring anything specific if you want it.

Get to that addr, and the gate will be open here: (green arrow)


Your 928 will be directed onto the ramp.

Family scene for sure..wifi available, and you can peek at/into the planes on the ramp as well.

Where can you go, what can you see??

Anything in green, you are free to wander 'round and go see things:


You could walk farther out to the runway..but then you are crossing more active taxiways, and who wants that..if its a nice day (it will be) it will be a busy day on the runway/taxiways.

The little green box at the bottom of the image, is the airport terminal, you can go in there anytime as well from the ramp side entrance (where we will be in the secure area) or from the public road side entrance where the car parking lot is.

It is not advised to park at the terminal, then go through it to get to the BBQ.

Its highly likely you can ask myself or the wife for a ride in something. Im checked out in everything the club has, Anissa is checked out in the cessnas, and most of the Piper models.

ANY questions?

I had a few Pm questions "you sure its a kid family area?"

Yes!
Every summer there is also an Airport Day where the transient ramp (farther out even than the area I marked green) is open to visitors to see planes on display/parked, and the airport is active all day long.


Very kid safe environment, just be with them, that is all.

We have a few Cranes that nest on field, a swarm of groundhogs...

Jeff: I already have one RSVP from Jeff McCabe. I wonder if he still has his electric 928.
