High Sierra Fly-In Special Gallery
Key Takeaways:
- The High Sierra Fly-In (HSF) is a significant gathering of over 200 airplanes, primarily taildraggers, held annually at a remote dry lakebed (Dead Cow Lake) in the high country of Nevada.
- The event emphasizes backcountry aviation, attracting a diverse range of aircraft, including kit-built planes and STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) aircraft, with activities like STOL drag races.
- HSF fosters a communal, DIY atmosphere where attendees enjoy camping, "hangar flying" (socializing about aviation), and various informal events, often in brisk and rugged conditions.
