No buzzing the airport and no overflight of Columbia State Historic Park. Bring your own tiedowns . Columbia was a Gold Rush boom town that has been restored as a state park. Columbia State Historic Park is a 10 minute walk from the airport and features shops, museums, a theatre, hotels, restaurants, stagecoach rides, and of course a place to pan for gold. In the time-honored tradition, we will help offset the cost of this event with our annual raffle.
Refrigeration is available in the clubhouse.
The club will provide soft drinks and coffee. Our guest speaker this year is Emmett Hatch, a long time pilot and Stinson Club member. Emmett trained with Chuck Yeager, and flew F-86 Sabre jets in the Korean War and Air Rescue in the Vietnam War. Emmett has also flown in Europe and flown helicopters in Alaska. Gary and Jean Murdock were avid Stinson club members who perished with their two children in an airplane crash in Shelter Cove on Labor Day 1994.
