POU Airport Wappinger Falls, NY

Paula's Cafe is the new restaurant in POU airport.

POU has a tower but is typically very low key.

No landing fee and parking is right underneath the tower.

Paula's is right in the same building as the main terminal. Tell ground where you want to go and they will assist if you have any questions.

Fuel price there is OK but nearby at 44N is usually the cheapest in the area should you need fuel.

The plan: meet at 12noon. Have lunch, swap mouse stories and enjoy lunch out.

Just had breakfast at Paula's made arrangements for February 22nd for the club to come
 
Wow, finally a close-by fly-in. And I have to be away that weekend. POU is listed on chart now as Hudson Valley Regional, but tower still goes by "Dutchess Tower" (the old name). Also a great avionics shop on the field - Precision Avionics.
 
Robert Staab has done a service to the Northeast Region by scheduling a fly-in.
Any member can schedule a fly-in anywhere.
If you coordinate with the regional director the fly-in could qualify for a BAC subsidy.
Robert has done all this (as well as posting it on the Event Calendar) and the POU Fly-In is official.

Enjoy.

I will be at the Fly-in in Tuscon, Arizona that week so I can only wish you luck.
I note Ken Cook, who is the Airboss of Connecticut, is attending and he knows how to get the most out of a fly-in.

602 nm from KAIK might be a bit much for a hamburger run. If I file direct I would get to fly right over the White House.

Have fun,
Don
 
Can I get list of who is coming to this event so I know which tail numbers to look for?

So far it looks like weather will cooperate but I'll be keeping watch.
 
Great. Looks like we’ll at least field a full table.

I’ve got a full Super coming with two kids and a friend.

If anyone needs us to wait, my phone number is 201-320-8281.

See you tomorrow.
 
The fly-in was had and good time was had by all. We were able to get a photo with some of the participants.

No flag so we had to improvise.

Thank you all who were able to come.

Can someone post all the names to the photo and let me know who flew, drove, etc... for newsletter and PT points?
 
Sorry, wrong thread and I tried deleting the post or filling it with spaces.
