Subject: Pietenpol-List: flyin fyiHey everybody,As has been mentioned it has been quiet, so I decided to post something everyone might be interested in. Awhile back, I came across an airport website for Lee Bottom Flying Field while searching for info on grass airports. What I found was a far from your ordinary grass airfield, meant to preserve the look and feel of a vintage airfield of the 1930s. They have a well groomed grass runway(4100' x 100' I think), old fashioned hangers, and are hard at work on a vintage aircraft museum. The owners Rich and Ginger work hard to keep the place looking good (with mostly their own money and a few donations, along with that of dedicated volunteers). Anyway, what I wanted to tell the list about is their yearly fly-in, "The Wood, Fabric, and Tailwheels Fly-in 2006" on September 30th. I think the Pietenpol would definitely qualify, and I'm sure you would have a great time. Lee Bottom is in Hanover, Indiana near the Ohio River, so those living in the Midwest have the shortest trip. All the information for camping, arrival, and the airport is available on their website below. I'm doubtful I'll be able to make it but check it out if you like.
