I get them to spend whole day in near hangars or airfields rather than sitting in front of TV
Good plan, and one successfully followed by other families I’ve known.
Even dogs have a better life at airfields versus stuck at home. (I’m reminded of how much a dog we brought from Germany loved to sit in our hangar and watch the world go by)
That’s the one! A very big hole in the ground.
Why don’t we make a family fly-in this summer? Choose some location that’s attractive for kids…I have some ideas.

Sounds brilliant, northern of Netherlands or Germany?

I would probably have some problems persuading mine to join because now they are 24 and 25 but maybe some locations are still attractive
Are grandkids welcome?

Great idea. I had this idea last october
Unfortunately, we have big plans for this year so it is unlikely we would come by air.

For example. Where I’ll definitely fly this year is Hodenhagen in Germany. There’s the Safari Park right next to the airfield, in a walking distance. Admittedly a grass strip, but as far as I’ve been told (they do fly-ins regularly) it is kept in a very good condition. I plan to stay two nights, date is not settled yet. Sounds (to me) like a lot of time to have some nice chat around a firepot.
Another prime destination with kids of any age is Zell am See in Austria. But there are a lot more.
