The 2011 Indiana Seaplane Pilots Association Fly-In at Lake James is scheduled for Sunday, September 25, 2011.

BIG NEWS!  Thanks to ISPA's efforts, Lake James was recently designated a PUBLIC Seaplane Base.  As a result, it is NO LONGER NECESSARY to get private permission in advance to attend this event.

ISPA thanks the State of Indiana's Department of Natural Resources and Department of Transportation for their cooperation in making this change and opening more Indiana waters to seaplanes.

Help!  We need your help to increase access
for Indiana seaplanes!

The Indiana Seaplane Pilots Association, in conjunction with the national Seaplane Pilots Association is working with the State of Indiana to develop reasonable changes to existing regulations that could open many more Indiana waterways to seaplanes.

We are making progress, but...

More needs to be done, and the seaplane community is being asked to help fund legal assistance to bring this about.  The SPA Foundation has established a special Indiana Seaplane Access Fund.  Click here to donate...

The Indiana Seaplane Pilots Association is dedicated to protecting the water flying rights of all seaplane pilots by minimizing restrictions and opening new waters, educating the public about seaplanes, their safety and utility, promoting the safe and neighborly use of seaplanes, and improving the safety of seaplanes across Indiana.

The INSPA also holds events and performs advocacy on behalf of seaplane pilots in the state of Indiana.

One popular favorite event is the annual Pokagan State Park Indiana Seaplane Fly-In, held every year in September.
