The fun-fly will be held at Drake Field, Love-Air’s beautiful home field and the site of their annual Big Bird airplane fly-in each year. The field features a 600’x50’ paved runway with numerous tables in the pit area. A central sun shade is located mid-field, but bring along your own canopy if you have one. The parking lot does have limited RV spots (no hookups); if you are planning on camping at the field, please mark it on the pre-registration form so that a spot can be reserved for you.
