It is a great fly in. Since I'm down here in South Texas it is hard to get there.

Tell Vaughn and the rest of the guys Archie said hi.

Today was the best day yet... sun for most of the day. Quite a few flights today. I broke out the big bird and she flew smooth and true. Love this fly-in......

Haha, there are like 8 tents in a row that have at least one yak under them. Hopefully we get a day without rain today, I got my volvo stuck in the mud leaving the field at 10:00 last night, haha.

You can camp at the field or stay in one of the motels less than 10 minutes away. It's the best night flying around and everything is free.

2008 saw 100 registered pilots, hundreds more spectators, a restored P51 flyby, nightflying, fireworks, vendors and alot of smiling faces. Come on out!

It is a wonderful place to fly and meet new friends. I stay for a week. I have gone for the last 15 years. Really look forward to it. The place to be to have fun.

It was another big day at Butler Field. Friday was the best weather yet. The skies were packed all day and night. The night flying was incredible, with over 9 night flyers at one time and a special flight by a 40% Carden Extra 260 with super bright lights.
