27th West Coast Cub Fly-in in Lompoc, CA
July 8th, 9th & 10th 2011
Dear Friends and fellow Cub pilots,
Its time to remind you all of our 27th annual West Coast Cub Fly-in here in the beautiful Lompoc Valley. We have a great little Fly-in, small enough to allow all the Cub folks to get to know each other, yet large enough to be lots of fun, thanks to you!
For those early birds who arrive on Thurs. or before, we start the fun stuff with a no host Chinese dinner at a nearby restaurant (within walking distance of the airport). Enterprise Rent-A-Car Rental will pick you up. (888) 305-8051 or (805) 735-4147. On Fri. we serve up a great Spaghetti feed followed by lots of homemade desserts. Dinner starts at 6:00 pm.
Registration is Friday & Saturday between 10 am and 4 pm. If youre planning to have your plane judged and to participate in the Fly-in events you need to be registered by 1 pm Saturday. The registration fee is $15.00 which helps cover the cost of ribbons, award plaques, and door prizes. Included in the registration packet will be a Certificate of Attendance for your tax exemption filing. The Pilots Safety Briefing also starts at 1 pm Saturday. To take part in the Flour Bomb Drop and the Spot Landing Contest, we ask for a donation of $5.00 for each participant. The Pilot Proficiency Contest is open to all Cubs, but will be limited to 50 planes due to the time it takes to complete the contest. Time and weather permitting after the events, we will then try for the Point Conception Lighthouse Tour.
Hamburgers, hot dogs, and soft drinks will be sold Friday & Saturday during the day, and on Saturday & Sunday a super breakfast of pancakes, sausage & strawberries will be served between 7 & 10 am. Saturday, between 5 & 7 pm, we will be serving our famous and outstanding Tri Tip BBQ with all the fixin's! The theme this year is Mardi Gras bring your beads for Sat. night; decorate your tie down, etc.! After dinner we will present the awards and draw for the door prizes. Awards will be presented to the First To Arrive (and stay for the event), the Farthest Distance flown from home base, the Best Cub, Oldest Cub and Oldest and Youngest Cub Pilot. These awards are given to the registered pilots of E & J Series Cubs and Super Cubs. We also have the Best Other Than A Cub and Pilots Choice awards.
Remember the temperature goes down with the sun so please bring a warm change of clothing. For those of you who are interested, we have special for sale. Lompoc offers many attractions including La Purisma Mission & the many murals decorating the buildings. Ross, Big 5, Radio Shack, Wal-Mart and other stores are just across the street from the airport.
We dont have much in the way of camping facilities some folks sleep under their planes. If you choose to forego the tarmac camping experience there are several hotels nearby. The closest motel is the Comfort Inn (was Quality Inn) (its our favorite as they have provided door prizes for the last 19 years) (805) 735-8555 - their rates for the Cub Fly-in are $85.99 plus tax. Make your reservations as soon as possible and identify yourself as a Cub Fly-in attendee. If you ask for a north facing room, you can look out and watch the planes on final. Other motels located near the airport are: Motel 6 (805) 735-7631 @ $59.99 plus tax Friday night and $65.99 plus tax per Saturday night, and the Holiday Inn (805) 465-4329 @ $139.00 plus tax per night.
We hope you can come and enjoy a weekend of fun with your fellow Cub enthusiasts. NOTE: Please bring your own tie downs and chocks as the overflow will have to be parked on the grass (weeds). Several hangars have been built where we used to park the larger and non-Cub types, so most of the non-Cub types will now be parked on the south side near the Comfort Inn Hotel. We look forward to seeing you here!
A reminder, those flying from the north, be advised that Santa Maria Airport is a Class D airspace; you should be at least 3000 ft. when crossing that airport or be in contact with the tower on 118.3.
