FATPNW has become the Clearinghouse for the social connection of all styles of flying in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. The Northwest Aviation Convention and Tradeshow was this weekend at the State Fairgrounds in Puyallup. Hope you learned about it from other sources in time to attend. FATPNW made a presentation along with sessions presented by Mark Baker of AOPA, Brian Shul of SR-71 fame and a bunch of excellent FAAST sessions in between other topics of interest to pilots everywhere. I fly out of 0S9 in Port Townsend and I fly a Maule. I don't often log into POA anymore since FATPNW connects me with all the local flying activities. Holler if you'd like to get some local airtime, but do look into FATPNW to maximize your options closer to home.
