Sweet Dreams

This is once upon a time ... there is a little grass airport, nestled in the shadow of Islip's Long Island MacArthur Class C airspace. It is a happy place, where antique airplanes and antique pilots engage in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness ....







They meet, they enjoy the Wednesday afternoon gatherings,




they enjoy working on projects together,



And sometimes they work long hours alone.




To keep the action going, there are field trips ...



And memories of fly-ins ...


and lines of little airplanes ...

and sweet dreams of flying.




Spring will come. The cold wind will turn warm and the runway will be ready. We practice, we read, we talk, we dream.



And eventually it will be time to fly again!
