Roger Lee Posted January 22, 2014 Report Share Posted January 22, 2014 8th Annual 2014 Page, AZ. Fly-In(WOW, Who would have thought, 8 years)Lake Powell, Monument Valley, Bryce Canyon, Zion, Grand Canyon, Bullfrog Marina Resort...Make those reservations now. It's time again to work on the Page, AZ Fly-In. We changed a few things last year that added some new fun. We did the river raft trip the day before the actual Fly-In day. It was a great raft trip. I would highly recommend it.We changed up some of the routes last year which turned out well so we'll do it again.The Page, AZ. Fly-In date is October 16-19, 2014We will fly the Grand Canyon, Lake Powell, Monument Valley (breakfast), Zion Canyon and Bryce Canyon (breakfast), Bullfrog Marina and Resort (breakfast).I have blocked off 35 rooms. We will be at the Holiday Inn with a rate of $66 (2 queen beds). I hope to have a record number of CT's and LSA aircraft for our Page Fly-In. Just like last year make the reservations early so you don't miss out and the hotel won't hold all 40 rooms forever.Do not wait this year. Book it now and you can cancel up to 24 hours before Oct. 16th. Get it booked and reserved, then if you have to cancel you can, but if you wait again then you may not be staying with the rest of us and at your own peril for rates and possibly a different hotel. They book darn near the whole town in October.You must tell them you are with the "CT Group and ask to speak with Courtney" for your reference and the rate of $66 a night. We will arrive Thursday morning, Oct. 16th. and head home Oct. 19th. Sunday or Monday morning. Breakfast is free in the mornings. This hotel has not only a continental breakfast, but a full breakfast.I talked to the people at the Ranch House Grill and they will cater our evening meals again. We will have evening meals together Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Clarion Inn ( The hotel had a name change) Ask for Illisa 751 South Navajo Drive, Page, AZ 86040 928-645-9000We will fly into the Page airport - KPGA.We are staying with Classic FBO and with our group we should get a 30 cent discount on fuel.Classic is not the first FBO next to the runway, but the second one behind them.The Antelope Canyon tour and the Dam tour is open if anyone wants. These are land tours.You guys are welcome to invite other planes that are not CT's and everyone is welcome. Find some more LSA's.I will develop GPS coordinates for all our routes and post them so you can enter them in your own GPS. I have a plan to better deal with all our planes for our flights so they are not crowded in the mornings or evenings.Don't miss this, we always have fun.p.s. I would like everyone coming to shoot me an email so I can put together a roster, make name tags and set up call signs like we did last year. If you attended last year and we had your personal info then just say you are coming. If you did not come last year then I would like the email to include: N#, Names of you and co-pilot, cell phone number, city, state.This is a big help for me to last year to organize our fly outs since we have so many planes and gives old friends and new friends a way to contact each other if need be.Thanks, Roger LeeSomething new has been added.

Olav Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 SIgn me up Roger. Will be calling the hotel tomorrow to make my reservations. No year is now complete without doing the Page Fly-in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olav Posted January 29, 2014 Report Share Posted January 29, 2014 Spoke with Courtney a few minutes ago at the Holiday Inn Express, Page. Room is reserved. Page is the best Fly-in of the year...my wife who normally is not much interested in flying considers the Page Fly-in an exception and won't miss it. She now threatens me with unspeakable repercussions if we can't go. I missed one year in order to do a Grand Canyon raft trip instead...she was NOT happy about it as that caused us to miss the Fly-in that year. The point of this is to encourage anyone who has not been to this event to make the effort to go. It is that good. Better than that good! Excellent flying, tremendous scenery, great people to get to know or renew old acquaintances with, and always a lot of information to exchange and learn from Roger, Tom, and other CT pilots.

SportCruiser Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Roger, Wanda and I will join you again this year. Will make our reservations today and have talked another SportCruiser owner, Gary and Judy Cordell, into joining us. They will make the trip from Tennessee. We're like Olav says below, it's not a complete year without this fly-in trip ... lots to see and friends to meet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social Director Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hi All, Just wanted to introduce myself as the newly appointed Social Director, Maizy. Its time again to start signing up and reserving your room for the Oct. Fly-In. The sooner the better to keep our rooms and please don't forget to send Roger Lee confirmation with your personal information. Something new looks like it may be added. On Friday afternoon we may fly up to Cal-Black airport, slightly NE of Page (about 15-20 min) and have a fun bomb drop and spot landing competition. Cal -Black is a nice runway, it is long asphalt runway and in a very flat area. So now you have something to practice for. For the low wing people that can't drop a bomb out a window vent we can pair you up with a high wing person so no one will miss out. The Cal-Black airport FBO has volunteered to cater a late lunch. This one will take a little more talking first, but is very doable. Quit waiting, sign up now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anselm Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Roger, just made reservations at the Holiday Inn a few minutes ago. We are going to rent Eric`s CTLS and fly up from Bisbee. I had toured the Page area a few years back, then in Eric`s CTSW together with my wife, this time my old CTLS Partner Klaus Pavlik will join me and we are looking forward to a great Fly-In with meeting other LSA People. After the Fly-In we plan to spend another week out west before returning to Bisbee and hope for some suggestions of the fellow pilots. Cheers, Anselm Urbanek Klaus Pavlik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocRon Posted July 12, 2014 Report Share Posted July 12, 2014 Folks, I've also made a reservation for our Event hotel for the first weekend in October. On or about September 29th, it will convert from a Holiday Inn Express to a Clarion Hotel (though there may be some variation to that date: +/- 30 days they said). I called back and was assured our reservations would be transferred to Clarion for our Event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

207WF Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 I called the hotel and its not "dog friendly," which means Nancy won't come this year unless we can find another hotel that is dog friendly. If we can't I will come alone. WF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT4ME Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Try something like the Red Rock hotel or LuLu's. Quaint little motels from the 50s or 60s. Just a block or two off of the main drag (8th Ave). We've stayed at Red Rock twice. There are several in that neighborhood...
