Registration Now Open
for King Air Gathering IV
Sept. 26-29, 2019
Hangar Hotel – Fredericksburg, Texas (T82)
by Kim Blonigen
Registration is now open for King Air Gathering IV
held Sept. 26-29, 2019. The King Air Academy
had a vision for the gathering as a way to bring
King Air owners and pilots together with experts in
the industry and leading King Air vendors to offer a
personal experience with the King Air community. Being
an attendee of the first three Gatherings, I must say
that the knowledge gained and experience in meeting a
variety of King Air owners, pilots and experts just keeps
getting better!
Due to popular demand and the uniqueness of being
able to be up close to all the King Airs parked on the
ramp at the last King Air Gathering (KAG), the next
event will again be held at the Hangar Hotel Conference
Center located right on Gillespie County Airport (T82)
at Fredericksburg, Texas.
If you choose to do so, hotel rooms will be available
at the Hangar Hotel, which is uniquely designed as a
World War II hangar and a 1940’s theme of that time. The
Hotel features airplane memorabilia, model airplanes
and USO history, and is located adjacent to the airport.
New this year, KAG attendees flying in to T82 have
first rights on rooms at the Hangar Hotel. Other hotel
options are also available and provided on the KAG website
at kingairgathering.com.

A change in the agenda will feature the cocktail reception
Thursday night, Sept. 26, for all in the King Air community
attending can get to know each other before the seminars
start Friday morning, Sept. 27. King Air experts will
present on hot topics all day Friday and Saturday morning.
Saturday afternoon will highlight one of the most requested
King Air experts discuss a variety of topics during the semi-
nar portion of the Gathering, from pre-buy inspections and
aircraft operations to maintenance and technical issues.
