MaxFreight's third Fly-In was held on Saturday, April 1, 2000

The Crazy Criss-Cross April Fools Fly-In!

A crazy idea for a fly-in and those who flew had a lot of fun. Picking their routes from the following airports, MaxFreight pilots were criss-crossing the Seattle area.

KAST - Astoria Regional - Astoria, OR
KCLM - Fairchild International - Port Angeles, WA
KEAT- Pangborn Memorial - Wenatchee, WA
KFHR - Friday Harbor airport - Friday Harbor, WA
KHQM - Bowerman airport - Hoquaim, WA
KOLM - Olympia airport - Olympia, WA
KPAE - Paine Field - Everett, WA
KYKM - Yakima Air Terminal, Yakima, WA


With weather being below minimums at a few of the airports, some of the landings were a bit tricky (don't tell the FAA), but every pilot had safe landings and returned to Seattle unscathed (and none of the cargo was damaged either).

Pilots who came to the fly-in included: MAX1, MAX2, MAX4, MAX413, & MAX502.

Below you will find a few screen shots from the fly-in.
