We are going to do another desert tow March 2nd, new pilots are coming from other parts of the hobby and saying they want to join in the aerotow fun.

Isn’t that the same place they have the hippy music festivals?

Coachella is a general term for the low desert south east of Palm Springs. The flying site is about 10 miles from the music festival area. But way back in about 1998 we were actually aerotowing from the very site where the music is now, it’s a perfect grass polo field that we had permisssion to use but as usual things changed and we lost our connection to the Empire Polo Club owner.
