fly-ins
Pilots' social events
Fly-ins are events where pilots fly their own aircraft to a gathering, typically at an airfield or airport.
These range from casual meetups of aviation enthusiasts to large organized events featuring aircraft displays, competitions, or camping under the wing: The annual fly-in draws hundreds of vintage planes.
Fly-ins also describe remote locations accessible only by aircraft, especially fishing or hunting lodges in wilderness areas: We booked a fly-in fishing trip to northern Canada.
