Trigger Gap, AR

Trigger Gap is an awesome backcountry airstrip in Northwest Arkansas (NWA), part of the @flyoz and @RecreationalAviationFoundation community of air strips. Too often people think you have to be a big-tire, backcountry, STOL airplane to use these airstrips, but in this video we fly our 1981 Piper Saratoga (PA32), 6-seat airplane to Trigger Gap for a visit. While unplanned, had the opportunity to meet up with Laura from @LadiesLoveTaildraggers and her Dad, along with Chris from Florida and Jack and his Scout from Illinois. This video will help familiarize you with the airstrip so you can make some safety judgements about coming to visit.

Special thanks also to the @TheNatureConservancy, @Walmart and @tysonbrand for sponsoring the improvements of the airstrip and the ongoing maintenance activities.

A little more about us.

We are Spencer & Coryee Hamons, and we have been married 22 years. I am an instrument rated Private Pilot that didn't get my pilot certificate until I was 42 years old. Aviation has always been a dream. My wife and I have a 1981 Piper Saratoga and we moved to an air park (OK06 Snake Creek Wilderness Air Park) in Northeast Oklahoma to build our dream home and hangar on a private neighborhood airport. We are starting this channel in hopes to inspire others to chase their dream of aviation, no matter their age, and for couples to find ways to work together in the cockpit and on-the-ground.
