Title: The $100 Pancake
Post by: PiperGirl on September 28, 2007, 02:41:19 PM
If any of you have the irresistable urge to have the $100 pancake (breakfast is only $5 for all you can eat), we'er having a Fly-in and pancake breakfast here at our airport (C20) on Sunday Sept 30. Should be a lot of fun and looks like we'll have good weather. Last year was our first time to host a fly in in years. We had over 80 planes come in and served over 600 breakfasts which is a lot more traffic than our airport usually sees. Gotta keep the good old GA traditions alive! ::wave::

ALL YOU EAT PANCAKES ::unbelieveable::
Let's see, Healdsburg to Andrews Airpark---2600 miles roundtrip=15 hours @ 200 bucks an hour= 3 grand---HMMMM, just how many of these pancakes will they let me eat ???

Ah heck, just come on up my way. Wasilla has an IHOP (International House of Pancakes) now! I'll even play ferry service from Wasilla airport ;)
Soldotna (SXQ) used to do a pancake breakfast but stopped years ago. Then we moved to Wasilla and they do a pancake fly in every year over in nearby Palmer--coupled with a short field takeoff clinic!
Any excuse for a fly in is good with me!

An IHOP even?
I'm almost afraid to go to one up here for fear that they removed a lot of the southern items you can get down south...

IHOP!!???? ::complaining: You compare IHOP to fresh pancakes, eggs, and hashbrowns cooked on an open grill with cool planes all around?! ::rofl::
You guys missed out! Good Food, Planes, beautiful day... what more can you ask for?! ::bow:: I'll post some pics as soon as I get them from my friend... I got stuck at the cash table all day so didn't get to see a whole lot of the planes. I just found out there was a beautiful globe swift there that I didn't get to see :'(... It was a fun breakfast though.
