Current Info / News:

  • Changes to Seattle Class B Airspace
    Notice Number: NOTC3358
    Seattle's Class B Airspace has changed! On December 15, 2011 the new VFR Terminal Area Chart for the Seattle Class B was issued. The physical shape of the Class B has changed including altitudes, radials and distances. Don't become a pilot deviation statistic because you don't have a new chart and fly into Class B airspace by mistake!

  • Family Day Event
    Thanks to all who came and helped with the Sept 17 Family Day Event. We did have another Young Eagle flying day on Sept 24. This time, with beautiful weather, we flew 30 enthusiastic youth. Thanks to all who helped.

  • Aircraft Washing: Washington State Dept. of Ecology is requiring the Port to ensure that all Aircraft are not washed in any area where runoff can get into the storm water system. Aircraft can be washed on surfaces that are pervious, ie. grass and dry washing in your hangar is fine.

    Full Story

    The Port does have a car wash kit that you can borrow for wet washing. They are currently designing a wash stand that will meet the D of E rules and will replace the one situated by Vertex Aviation. We know that this is a pain, but please work with the Port on this issue, it is not their fault!
    For answers to any questions, contact: Sara Young or call (360) 757-0011.

  • Renew membership: If you still haven't renewed your 2011 membership, please do. The more Skagit Pilots we have as members the greater our influence will be with the Port. It is only $25.00 a year. Thanks.
