I've never flown down the Hudson, but here is a website of a local pilot and his recommendations; http://www.germaise.com/interests/aviation_flyinghudson1.htm If you are flying to FDK, there is a small airport on your route called Clearview, that while it has the shortest runway in Maryland for a public airport, it has a nice little pilot shop. A fun stop. Becareful of the DC ADIZ and Camp David. I am not sure if I am going to the fly-in, but if I am I may be able to give some folks a ride over. Chris

I suspect that several coupers from New England, NY or NJ are planning to go. Would it work to meet up someplace like CDW, FWN, SWF, HPN or 4N1 on Fri evening, have a motel overnight and then fly as a group down the Hudson River seeing West Point, Bridges/tunnels and the Statue with opportunity of taking air shot photos of all coupes in the group enroute? Has any couper done the River corridor? Does any couper live near a usable airport and be willing to help? - get uptodate info, frequencies, provide ground transportation, etc?? Maybe this is something EOC could "do". I suspect some besides myself in Ohio would join up with this adventure. That's why I'm proposing it!
