Conway Airport information for the fly-in on November 3, 2012:
Please monitor Unicom 122.7 (if you have a radio) as we will have advisories on that channel.
Note the right traffic on runway 04 and left traffic on runway 22. This puts the pattern always on the southeast side of the airport.
Suggested pattern altitude: 1000 AGL for General Aviation and 500 foot for Ultralights.
Reminder: Conway’s runway is outside of MYR’s Class C airspace but it is fairly close to the outer ring so we offer the following information: If you are outside of MYR’s inner ring but inside their outer ring your altitude should be under 1200 feet or above 4000 feet in order to stay out of the Class C airspace. Anyone inside of MYR’s inner ring and under 4000 feet must have a mode C transponder, radio, and be communicating with ATC – ultralight’s should avoid that inner ring area of course!

The project this month is a Titan T-51 Mustang which is a three-quarter scale replica of the P-51 Mustang. The T-51 is a two-seat homebuilt aircraft with dual controls and tandem seats and has remarkable performance given the small size of the engine. T-51 kits are fabricated by Titan Aircraft Company at South Austinburg, Ohio. The aircraft has a wide range of handling abilities, from a stall speed of only 39 mph to high performance up to 197 mph and agility afforded by a +6g / -4g load limit capability. See
