Ladies Love Taildraggers Fly-in/Splash-In slated for June

By General Aviation News Staff · May 16, 2016 ·

Ladies Love Taildraggers will hold its annual fly-in June 3-5 at Sulphur Springs Airport (KSLR) in Texas.

All pilots are invited to attend the event, officials note.

Anyone wanting to kick-start the fun may arrive Thursday, June 2, and take advantage of free camping and hot showers on the field.

Motels are nearby with group rates available and transportation provided throughout the weekend between motels, downtown, restaurants and the airport.

KSLR is home to American Legend Aircraft Co., which manufactures the Legend Cub (pictured), which will offer factory tours and demo rides to attendees.

LegendCubThere will be hangar dinners each evening, Zumba with RV-8 Kelly, a special Plane Walk, evening wine tastings by local winery and more.

Fly-outs include lunch on Friday to Pelican’s Landing Restaurant at 3T0. With a 3,000-foot grass strip on the shore of Lake Texoma, Cedar Mills Airport is the perfect destination for a gaggle of taildraggers, fly-in organizers noted.

Saturday’s big event is a Poker Run to benefit the LadiesLoveTaildraggers Scholarship Fund. Departures begin at 10 a.m. with stops at five nearby airports and a BBQ lunch hosted by EAA Chapter 972 at Gladewater Municipal Airport.

Everyone is welcome, but registration is required.
