Memories


 

I know all of us have pictures like this from days past and friends loved and lost.
Thought I'd share this one from 15 years ago that I ran across while doing some organizing.

What a crew.....

Not a 100% sure but I think ...
One of the last breakfasts at the old Gay Valley field.
Good to see such a mix of 1060 and 602 faces.

Thanks, Doug

That is the water tower for SI Group near Rotterdam Junction in the background so I would say it is Mohawk Valley.

I believe I took that image.? If so, it would line up with Pat's assessment.

When I had a couple of PPC intro flights from there in the later 80's the guys were calling it Gay Valley.
Just found this..... LOL

Paul Kollias

Gay Valley Airport was renamed by me, through the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, “Mohawk Valley Airport” after James Williams and Angelo Padone purchased the place from Paul and Anna Gay. It appeared as such on the sectional from 1996 on. Reason, skydiving is 80% male, approximately…tandem jumping is “close”… no reason to sabotage my school by using the name it had.

Judy and I used to go down most every, I think, Sunday for an impromptu fly in.? Great little diner and a great group of flyers.? I did a lot of my ultralight flying down there.? It was a great field though the grass was always heavy and it was a bit short.? As I remember 1800 ft, but that was OK as if you could get off the ground the river was strait out and a little down.

Thanks, Doug
