Plymouth
Vintage fun, modern
moves, friendly skies
AIRSHOW PERFORMER
Mike Goulian and his
family run Executive
Flyers Aviation, one
of the largest flight
schools in the
northeast, based at
Hanscom Field in
nearby Bedford,
Massachusetts. It was
founded by his father
Myron in 1964. His
brother Matthew
runs the in-house
maintenance and Mike
is chief pilot (www.
executiveflyers.com).
R-2 | AOPA PILOT July 2014
ABOUT AN HOUR'S DRIVE south of Boston,
closer still to Cape Cod, Plymouth, Massachusetts, was the first landing spot for the
Pilgrims in 1620, and has long drawn aviators
with a mix of location (on the coast, south of
the Boston Class B), good eats, friendly service, and a community of pilots who work
together-and with the community-to make
Plymouth Municipal Airport a destination
worth logging.
It is an airport run by aviators. Plymouth
Airport Commission Chairman Kenneth
Fosdick has a hangar chock full of rag-wing
classics (and a couple of more modern
machines), including a vintage Viking B-8 Kittyhawk (purrs like a kitten, flies like a hawk),
one of about 30 produced in New Haven, Connecticut, in the 1930s.
Suspended from the ceiling of Fosdick's
crowded hangar is a Curtiss-Wright CW-1
Junior of the same vintage, one of a handful left in the world (another example can be
found in the Smithsonian Institution National
Air and Space Museum). Fosdick has friends
who help bring these aircraft back to flying
condition, and understanding wife, Karin.
The Plymouth Aero Club has been revitalized and reenergized in recent years under
the leadership of President Tom Hurley, who
flies a Cherokee 180, and Vice President Jeannie Phillips, who also works for the town and
assists airport manager Thomas Maher, and
flies a Cessna 140.
"We try to be on the friendly end of the
spectrum," Maher said. "We try to get activity
to happen here."
Well, as it happens AOPA plans just that
sort of thing on July 12.
GOULIAN THRILLS
Aerobatic champion, airshow veteran, and
race pilot Mike Goulian needs no introduction
in aviation circles: his high-energy, high-precision routine is known around the world.
Mike Goulian Airshows has its home base at
Plymouth, drawn in large part by a supportive community and airport leaders who go out
of their way to accommodate, support, and
encourage aviation.
Plan to meet Goulian at the AOPA Fly-In,
where he will present a seminar on aerobatic
maneuvers.
