Saturday, April 25 Day Trip:

Cochise County (Willcox) – P33

Trip Detail Recap:

• P33 Arrival time: 8:45 - 9:15am (please stagger arrival times)
• Breakfast will be served by the local EAA Chapter. Cost = donations accepted.
• P33 is AZ Passport destination.

Our April Day Trip will be a return to a recent favorite destination among our APA member as we head to Cochise County (aka “Willcox”) Airport. This will be our last trip to southern AZ until the Fall, and the second time we’ve made Willcox our Day Trip destination. At almost 4,200’ MSL, the morning temperatures should be very comfortable with great views of southeastern AZ.

RSVP’s are required as we need to provide a head count for breakfast since the local EAA Chapter has agreed to cook breakfast for our group.

Willcox Aviation will once again host APA’s visit:

Many thanks to Willcox Aviation who is once again our host for this event. They took over the FBO three years ago and have finished a complete remodeling of the FBO facility. Furthermore, they’ve also arranged to have the local EAA Chapter cook breakfast for our Day Trip participants. Many thanks to Katie Wear (co-owner, Wilcox Aviation) for making these arrangements!

Lastly, if you check the Wilcox 100LL fuel prices you’ll see that they are some of the lowest in the state.

Wilcox Aviation will offer Day Trip participants an additional 50-cent/gallon discount on any fuel purchases made that morning.

Wrap-Up:

As always, be sure to thoroughly preflight both yourself and your aircraft. And do a thorough flight planning as would be required for any cross-country flight. P33 is a non-tower-controlled airport, so pilots are encouraged to review Advisory Circular 90-66C for proper operation in non-towered airports.

Feel free to contact me with any questions (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) and we'll look forward to seeing you there.

Safe flying,
