2022 Barnyard Fly-in UPDATE

 Our host tells us he has installed an AWOS so you can tune in to the ATF frequency, 123.2, click your microphone four times, and hear a report of the surface wind. Try it within twenty miles at 3000 feet.

2022 Barnyard Fly-in Sunday, August 28

 We will hold our 26th annual fly-in at Hawkefield, which has an even clearer approach from the south than it had in 2021.

9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

For details and Canada Flight Supplement entry and circuit diagram, see our Annual Barnyard Fly-in page on this website. 

Our host will have his 1944 P-51D Mustang on display. Some lucky visitor will win a ride in the Mustang.
