It is the Third Thursday of the month, September 21st . Head on over

Fly-out:

We rescheduled our August Fly-out day to be on the WAAAM Fly-in day.
Fred Berardo flew in and Gary Miller drove in. Several other non-CO-OPA
Bendites also flew in and camped. The weather was perfect, the Ford
Trimotor sounded great as it fly by, the food was good, and of course
there were a lot of really neat airplanes to look at.

Oooops:

I had a brain fart, and let a domain squatter get control of
co-opa.com. All the old and new content will be moving over to
co-opa.org.
