We are in the middle of the busy fly-in season here in Concrete. As soon as we finished getting everything put away after Arlington, it was time to start getting everything ready for our fly-in here in Concrete that starts a week from tomorrow (7/23-24). Everybody is invited to the fly-in and it's a great place to be if you like an old fashioned, low key fly in with lots of old airplanes.
This year we're excited as we have a special guest that will be visiting us here in the North Cascades. Addison Pemberton will be flying his one-of-a-kind Boeing Model 40C into 3W5 and will be staying for the fly-in. For those of you who haven't seen it yet, the Model 40 is an incredible example of aircraft restoration. Pemberton and Sons Aviation spent many years tracking down the airplane, acquiring and fabricating parts and immaculately restoring what is now the oldest flying Boeing airplane in the world.
It's a great honor that Pemberton will be flying his Boeing here to the North Cascades Vintage Fly-In. Even if you’ve seen the airplane before, this will be a great opportunity to get a close look at the airplane, ask questions and see it fly. And if that's not enough, he and his family are flying in some other airplanes as well including a beautifully restored Laird LC-1B-300.
