The 2026 Great Ercoupe Relay
- 2026 Ercoupe Relay Interest - Get On Board!

In 2026, the EAA is spotlighting the "Class of 1946" postwar boom aircraft. Since so many of our Ercoupes were manufactured in 1946 this is a natural fit for the club.

What an interesting concept and endeavor.
I am based at two airports. I have a hangar at Salisbury. Maryland (KSBY) and a leased tie-down on the ramp at Delaware Coastal (KGED) in Georgetown, DE. I consider GED my "home" airport because I live in Delaware and like this GA airport a lot. (My wife likes the restaurant in the terminal.)
I would be comfortable flying 100-125 miles (or so). That puts me in range of Virginia's Eastern Shore, southern Maryland Like Harford County (0W3) or maybe even York, PA (KTHV), and southern New Jersey, such as Ocean City, NJ (26N).
Sadly, I am not planning to attend any "events" this coming year.

Alright gang, who's ready to fly our flag in 2026?
The relay route will involve a lot of planning so I'd like to get started early. There's NO obligation at this point. Here's what I'd like to know:
1. Where are you based?
2. How far are you able to fly? Give it to me in time, distance, particular airports, or whatever else you're comfortable with.
3. Anyone in particular you'd like to pick up or handoff to?
4. Are you planning to attend any large events or fly-ins that I can build into the schedule?
5. Anywhere in particular you'd particularly like to go... or to avoid?
