Nearly every aviator has heard of Oshkosh, but are you familiar with Triple Tree? If you’re a pilot or aviation enthusiast, the Triple Tree Aerodrome in South Carolina is the place to be every year for one week in September. This year, the annual Triple Tree Fly-In was held September 19 to 25.

At the 2022 fly-in, the private field saw more than 1,700 aircraft movements and hosted more than 800 aircraft. Pilots can fly-in for a day, multiple days—or spend the entire week camping with their aircraft and socializing. A commercial kitchen and club house constructed on the site serve nightly barbecue fare, and permanent bathhouses give campers a chance to shower and refresh themselves. There are also 100 camping sites for RVs with water and electrical hookups.
