Siljan AirPark summer, most beautiful and lush time of the year. And not far away, at least not for pilots, really . This season is the time of buzzing activity in Siljan AirPark. People are outdoors, and in the evenings the sound of model planes and the special barbecue aroma are characteristics of the atmosphere in this great airpark. Midsummer is behind us, and a long hopefully warm season is in front of us. This coming week-end the flying club is having its very first glide-in. If weather permits many gliders are expected to fill the airspace above Siljan AirPark with their elegant exercises.   Local...

Spring all over! It is very distracting. An eager little mr. Blue Tit has moved into the nesting box on our north wall. To attract a mate he is picking on the box sides from the inside, which resounds through the entire house. And he is no late sleeper! He wakes up with the hens and starts picking, offering room and board in new delicate surroundings with no cats in sight. Hope he soon finds his Queen of Hearts so your editor can go back to work again undisturbed. But it is also a sure sign of spring, so he is forgiven. Spring also means new website!! This is what meets the eye when you write...

It is definitely spring! All the small signs around you tells you this is the time. And the calendar!! More daylight than night, it turned two days ago, marvelous! Not much longer willsnow, ice and cold winds prevent us from hauling out our flying machines, small or large, and let them soar against the blue sky in vain competition with our feathered friends. Well, well, aim for the stars and you may hit the tree tops! In Siljan AirPark spring time also means annual meeting and labor day. Important: Labor day changed from May 10th to May 2nd!!!! May 2nd is the day where you work...

  Behind the horizon, out in the wilderness, well maybe not that dramatic an approach but tracks leading away always stirs the imagination and fantasy, and you find yourself dreaming about remote places and adventures. A feeling known by every pilot. Up, up and away. But for some weeks still it has to stay in the imagination as the runway is covered in snow and ice. But this is one of the wonderful properties by our airpark: even though you are not flying there are thousands of activities to enter into. One of them is skiing. Perfect surroundings for skiing cross country as well as downhill....

  “Wisdom is knowing how to live your life”. This was said on the last day of 2014 by a Danish entertainer, Niels Hausgård, known for his humor and philosophical attitude. Looking around in Siljan AirPark you get the feeling that you are surrounded by people, who discovered the truth of these words long ago. “Pursuing your dreams” is another aspect of these words, and the history of Siljan AirPark although so far short tells a story of people who wanted to do something – and did it! A new year with all its challenges is in front of us and our new board is ready to meet them...
