We need to say thank you to all of you for treating our home as if it were your own and keeping it clean. Same runway info as before. Land to the north on 35, take off to the south on 17. Make sure to make radio calls and listen out for the air boss. Our ground radios will pick you up out to about 10 miles so please start making calls and usually you can hear us at about 3 miles out. We will work with you for sequencing as needed and watch for ground marshellers to direct you to parking. Our runway is 1900 foot, grass, up hill for landing, down for take off. Please shoot for your touch down point just after the first little roller. For those that need a larger runway please head to MTV which is only 7 miles away and we will send someone over to pick you up either via aircraft or truck but we will get you to the Fly In. For those that are camping we will have a ATV that can pick up your gear and bring it to the camping area if you would like. You are of course welcome to camp under your wing and even drive in campers are welcome. The Menu in 2025 seemed to be a huge success so we will probably keep very close to that for 2026. The shaved ice team will be back again for 2026 and we will be hosting the Kelly Brady Memorial Movie Night. We are also working on shirts for this year. Can’t wait to see you all back at the Ranch in 2026 and of course stop in any time before then and say hi!
