Great Video. I have just started flying myself out of Laconia and performed my first solo. Looking forward to some back and forth from Bedford to Laconia soon

Thumbs up The Lakes Region Airpark, Wolfeboro Neck...

At 5:10, the airport noted as "Winter Haven" is a closed airfield, slated for development.

Formerly a public airport since 1949, the Lakes Region Airpark is further described in the History forum—here:

Good stuff Bucky, I still remember my first solo, over in Sanford ME around 1989. The instructor told me to stop on a taxiway, he jumped out and said take it around 3 times. Great memories. Stick with it.

I fly into Laconia often, was just there on Wednesday, I videoed the Lake again frozen, hopefully it comes out. Looks like people have been snowmobiling from one end to the other.

Congratulations. It's a great and memorable accomplishment. My solo was 1970 in Corpus Christi, TX. Later, I learned to fly tail draggers in Maine on a grass strip--skis in winter, not wheels.
