Flight Planning for Shelter Cove Fly-In
Join us as we prepare for our upcoming club fly-in to Shelter Cove (0Q5)—one of the most scenic and rewarding destinations along California’s Lost Coast. While the location offers stunning views and a unique experience, it also presents flight planning challenges that require careful preparation.
This safety meeting will focus on:
- Approach and departure considerations at Shelter Cove’s coastal airstrip
- Weather patterns and fog risk along the Lost Coast
- Fuel planning and alternate airports (given the lack of services at 0Q5)
- Terrain and wind awareness, especially along the coastal range
- Group arrival/departure strategies to maintain safety and flow
Whether you’re flying in for the first time or returning for another visit, this session will ensure you’re well-prepared for a safe and enjoyable trip.
Who should attend:
All members participating in the Shelter Cove fly-in, and any pilots interested in improving their flight planning for remote or coastal destinations.
