WEST COAST SWIFT WING
December 2016
EDITOR: CAROL & GERRY HAMPTON AV8RGNH@SBCGLOBAL.NET 530-676-7755

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, Happy Kwanza, etc. Hope all are enjoying the Holiday Season.

Looking forward to the 2017 fly-ins with Swift National in Cleburne, TX, KCPT Oct 4-8 and the West Coast Swift National at Westover Field will be 9-11 June 2017.

Petaluma fly-in 13 Nov

From Richard Clinton: Two Swifts flew in, The Stahl’s and Al McDonald both from Westover, plus Kyle Hook’s which is based there. I had to take my Champ, still haven’t finished my cowling install. I thought for sure I would have that done by now! (Trials and tribulations keeping the Swift going )

Petaluma Swift fly-in

Westover 2017 June 9-11

We are changing the date of the West Coast Swift National from late September to early June so there is no conflict with the RRSW folks hosting Swift National in early October. Weather in early June will be similar to our late September fly-in, just not as cool in the evenings. More info to follow. Please plan to attend.

Swift National Oct 4-8

The RRSW is hosting Swift National at Cleburne, TX, KCPT. More info will be forthcoming in the next several months. Put on your calendar and plan to attend.
