14FEB21 / 1900Z - A GA Flyout On An Island? Yep! @KAVX

Hosted By TheFlyingGuy1


About The Event

Welcome to my Catalina Island Event. I’m sure you have heard of Catalina Island either because you’ve been there or from Apple. It is a beautiful island which houses a small municipal airport in between two cliffs. We will all fly out of this small airport, do a few loops until everything takes off and then break away towards our destinations!


About The Airport

Catalina Airport (IATA: AVX, ICAO: KAVX) is a small privately owned airport that serves Catalina Island. It is open to the public and only GA is allowed to fly there. The airport has a 3000x60ft concrete runway with cliffs on both sides. The runway is very uneven making it dangerous. The airfield is at an elevation of 1,602ft. There have been over 23,000 airport operations since it’s opening!


The Island

Santa Catalina Island is a small island located about 29 miles from the coast of California. It measures about 22x8mi is size. The highest point is 2,097ft above the ocean. The island has a population of only about 5,000 people! Most of the people there are actually visitors. Catalina is a huge place for people to go on boats since is is a quick 1-2 hours hop across the ocean. It is a beautiful island with clean water and amazing places to see wildlife!

Let’s get more signups!

Could I get Main Tie Down 3 with the same flight as @Tsumia please?

Hi, @TheFlyingGuy1.
I am sorry, but I will probably not make it to the event. The winter weather in Texas is causing problems with my internet access, and Sunday looks bad.

Any stand, XCub, local flying, returning to AVX, call sign N76VT.

I’ll go ahead and take stand 8.

Thanks for the event @TheFlyingGuy1. Enjoyed it!

Any gate in the C172 please. I’ll be flying to TOA.
