Mac and I flew the Cessna 172 to Peachtree City, Georgia’s airport, Falcon Field (KFFC) to attend their annual Falcon Field Vans RV Squadron Fly-In on Saturday, May 7, 2011.
The trip over at 5500 feet took us right at two hours. It was a perfect day for flying. Blues skies and smooth. We flew almost directly over the airport by the Atlanta Motor Speedway. What a sight. The airport is only a short walk to the speedway. About 15 to 20 minutes later we arrived at Falcon Field, entering into downwind from the east for right traffic runway 13.
There were many RV’s in attendance. I wish I had taken more photos, but I was too distracted by just looking at them. They had an array of great food to eat, which we really enjoyed.
There were several of us RV-minded folks from KCUB there. We all got golf carted to the very nearby Aircraft Spruce, adjacent to the airport. How convenient for the folks at Falcon Field. We shopped for about an hour. I pulled out my CC and burned it up good there. Yikes!
Great to meet the folks at Falcon Field. They really put on a great fly-in event. I look forward to going back soon!
I just love that overview photo and the ace card painted on that airplane.
