Allegro-ers,



I wonder if there are enough Allegro-ers east of the Mississippi to 

warrant having an informal Allegro fly-in next spring or summer. If any 

of you think this might be a good thing to do, post your ideas of where 

would be a good place to do it. Perhaps Doug and Betty might be 

interested in hosting such a thing, like most of the kit plane outfits 

do. I don't think they even monitor this list, so they may not be 

interested.

Thom: I think it is a great idea! If all the Allegro owners on this list

that are east of the Mississippi would give you their physical location you

could pick a central location (relative to all of the locations) and see if

we could pull it off. I know there are at least 6 to 8 Allegros here in NC

and VA, and maybe more. Just a note to tell you that we have a local fly-in

here at Laneys Airport (N92) twice a year. They are held on the second

Saturday in May and October. In May of this year we had over 40 planes. The

field has two grass strips 2000 feet long 90? to each other.



If Laneys is central to all of those who would like to meet, I'm sure I

could arrange with Charles Laney (the Owner) to host such a "gathering". Let

me know if I can help.

Hugh,



I think for our first event, perhaps piggy-backing onto an existing fly-in makes a lot of sense. Does the Laneys spring fly-in have a website with the details? From Buffalo, it is a five hour flight plus one fuel and head stop. If it is a 2-3 day affair it would make the trip worth while. I'm flying to Kentucky in a couple weeks, about the same distance, no big deal if the weather is good. 



There is an Allegro Frappr! website with a map of those Allegro operators who have chosen to log in and post their location. If we can get all those interested to use this site, we can make an educated guess about appropriate location.



Here is a link to the Allegro Frappr! website.

If anyone is interested in an eastern Allegro gathering, please respond to the list and let us know where you are on the Frappr! map.
