You're invited to join us for our "Fly In To Summer" Builder Fly-In Gathering at the Zenith Aircraft Factory.

This will be our fifth annual "Fly in to Summer" event.  As opposed to our annual fall Open Hangar Day with scheduled workshops and forums, the June event is very informal and unstructured. Owners of completed Zenith Aircraft are encouraged to fly-in for the activities and to show off their completed project to fellow builders (we will provide tie-down space and help facilitate ground transportation if possible). Let us know of any special needs or requirements.

Join us for breakfast on Saturday morning at the Riley's Roost:

Early Saturday morning, Glenn and Anita Riley are hosting their annual "Fly-In / Drive-In Breakfast at Riley's Roost" at their grass field north-west of Mexico, and invite all Zenith builders and flyers to join them for breakfast once again, starting at 7 am (before the Zenith Open Hangar).
Place: By road: From Mexico on Hwy 22 West 2.25 miles to Hwy NN - North on NN 2.25 miles to Riley's Roost.
By Air: 1.5 miles North of tall tower west of Mexico, about 6 miles from KMYJ. N 39.12.46 W 91.56.12
Glenn maintains a beautiful grass strip: Approx. 2400 ft. x 100 ft.

The Zenith Aircraft factory will be open from 8:00 am - 3:00 pm for self-guided factory tours, demonstrations, and more. The local EAA chapter will provide a "wiener roast" lunch and we'll also plan to have coffee and donuts available in the morning. Please bring tie-downs for your aircraft if flying in, and bring yourself a lawn chair if driving in.
