My Posts This: Topic  Forum		The link is down?

The flying field consists of a 385x38' paved runway that is also paralleled by a groomed grass runway. The field is located in the eastern part of Superior Township.

Latitude 42° 16' 48" N, Longitude 83° 33' 27" W

The driveway is actually on Ridge Road:
Latitude 42° 16' 53" N, Longitude 83° 33' 08" W
Mapquest can provide a map
Or you can get from Google



I believe we never recieved an address from the township as all mail is forwarded to our officers. Please respond if this is not sufficient.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Ya stop in when you get time, hope the weather is good too, I'll be the dude in the orange striped shirt. George.

Here is the heli pad we put in to facilitate the heli crew at the Pilgrims. This would help out for training on small stuff, or scraping blades for the advanced, its nice to have regardless.

My Posts This: Topic  Forum		Last shower to pass before 10am, the field may be wet in the morning, but the flight hours have been spared. I was worried I'd have to change the name to "Michigan Helicopter Air Shower"
