Chandelle Breakfast Fly In - April 6, 2013


Come join us for a pancake at the Chandelle Breakfast Fly In. The breakfast will be held at Stu and Marj Swanson’s hangar. We will serve breakfast from 9 until 10:30 am. For those of you that may be driving the address is 126 Landmark Drive, Greer, SC. If you are flying, Chandelle is located approximately 5 miles SE of GSP.

We look forward to seeing you on the 6th. Click here for pictures of previous Fly Ins.

RUNWAY

3700-Ft. Paved and Lighted. Runway 21, Left Traffic, has a displaced threshold. Watch for the wires east of the highway on approach. They are marked with red balls. When departing Runway 21, as soon as practical, make a right turn heading 230 degrees for noise abatement. We thank you in advance for this courtesy.

We ask that when approaching Runway 3, Left Traffic, if practical, off-set the final approach slightly to the northwest (left) so as to avoid flying low, directly over the homes in the neighborhood adjacent to the airport. Again we appreciate your courtesy.

After careful consideration and for the enhancement of safety, the Chandelle Breakfast Fly In has decided that it would be safer not to use the grass for landing during the Breakfast Fly In. All take-offs and landings will be conducted on the paved runway only. This will allow for less conflict with taxing aircraft. After landing, aircraft should taxi in the grass on the northwest side of the paved runway.

There will be parking attendants to assist in directing you to parking. The parking attendants will have radios for communicating with taxing aircraft.

The residents of Chandelle Aviation Estates would like to remind everyone to observe all Federal Aviation Regulations. Safety is our # 1 priority. All types of aircraft are welcome with the exception of jet aircraft (turbo-prop aircraft do not fall under this restriction and are welcome to land at Chandelle) and aircraft that have a gross weight greater than 10,000 pounds at the time they are operating on the Chandelle runway. Thank you for your cooperation.
