TX C170 Fly-in Sep. 9, 2023 Tyler KTYR

Post by c170ken »

Texas members of TIC170A  will plan to meet at Tyler Pounds Airport  https://www.airnav.com/airport/KTYR  Saturday September 9th for our September fly-in.

We'll plan to enjoy lunch at the Skys The Limit Diner  https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaurant_ ... Texas.html .

For those who have not been there or those who may wish to visit it again, there is a nice Military Museum where the diner is  http://tylerhamm.org/ .

Someone has to let us through a locked gate to get to the diner and museum.  Usually they see you park and come open the gate when you are ready, but should that not happen please call 903-707-2900, and they will open the gate.

Let's all please try to arrive prior to 11:00 am.

Please remember we always welcome out-of-State members and any guests to join us.

If you have questions please contact Ken Peck at 512-468-7790  or c170ken@gmail.com.

We had a great time, and weather was just right. Most of the ride home was under a high cloud layer, smooth and cool-ish.

I’m sorry to have missed this one… I had planned to make it, but Life presented a last minute conflict. Hopefully next time!
