    I visited Lee Bottom last month by car (I know...) for their last "Sinful Sunday" of the season. The sinfulness was the delicous ice cream they served! No evil doing, I promise! Anyway, as Tim pointed out, this is a really neat field, with tons of charm. I was told that they normally have about 300 aircraft fly in for their annual gathering, so it should be a great event. I have some pictures from the Sinful Suday on my website, just in case anybody was wondering what the place looked like from the ground. http://www.taildraggersinc.com/Gallery/Lee_Bottom_SS_08132006.htm -Wayne -----Original Message----- From: glich7@juno.com Sent: Fri, 8 Sep 2006 8:05 PM Subject: Pietenpol-List: flyin fyi --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "glich7@juno.com" <glich7@juno.com> Hey everybody, As has been mentioned it has been quiet, so I decided to post something everyone might be interested in. Awhile back, I came across an airport website for Lee Bottom Flying Field while searching for info on grass airports. What I found was a far from your ordinary grass airfield, meant to preserve the look and feel of a vintage airfield of the 1930s. They have a well groomed grass runway(4100' x 100' I think), old fashioned hangers, and are hard at work on a vintage aircraft museum. The owners Rich and Ginger work hard to keep the place looking good (with mostly their own money and a few donations, along with that of dedicated volunteers). Anyway, what I wanted to tell the list about is their yearly fly-in, "The Wood, Fabric, and Tailwheels Fly-in 2006" on September 30th. I think the Pietenpol would definitely qualify, and I'm sure you would have a great time. Lee Bottom is in Hanover, Indiana near the Ohio River, so those living in the Midwest have the shortest trip. All the information for camping, arrival, and the airport is available on their website below. I'm doubtful I'll be able to make it but check it out if you like.

    I made a stop in at Grimes back in 2002. We flew up in a friend's Skybolt. Grimes is a nice field, and their fly-in is very well attended. Lots of neat planes. I have a gallery on my site with pics from Grimes, too. Sorry to post so many gallery links in one day, but it's always nice to share photos! http://www.taildraggersinc.com/Gallery/Grimes2002.htm -Wayne -----Original Message----- From: wry22@drexel.edu Sent: Sat, 9 Sep 2006 1:30 PM Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: flyin fyi --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "William Rives Young" <wry22@drexel.edu> For those of us in PA the Golden Age Air Mueseum at Grimes Field(8N1) is a pretty cool place too.
