CA Sep 29-Oct 1 North/South Fly-In Columbia Airport (O22)
Posted: Sun Aug 06, 2023 3:12 pm
It’s time for another North/South Fly-In at Columbia Airport! Bring your families and friends (and 170s, of course) and enjoy the excellent campground with restrooms, showers and electrical outlets. If camping is not your thing, there are also hotels nearby. We will have a group dinner in town at El Jardin Restaurant on Saturday at 5:30pm. Evening campfire afterwards.
Even though it will be off season, there are plenty of things to do in town. The Columbia State Historic Park/Downtown is a great place for adults and children alike. It is a one mile walk from the campground with an ice cream shop along the way.
This will be a wonderful opportunity for all the California members to get together, meet with old friends and make new ones. Most 170s representing their half of the state will receive recognition and bragging rights until the next N/S Fly-In. If you don’t have a 170, fly in anyway! Airplanes and pilots of all types are welcome (and encouraged) to join in the fun.

Town tour Saturday and Sunday at 11am
