Strawberry Island.

Hi Phil,
Strawberry Island is a small Island west of Harsens Island in Lake St Clair. If you follow the Clinton River entrance straight east into the Lake you will run into Strawberry Island. Selfridge uses that Island as a calling in point for runway 1. You'll hear the tower say, Demon 11 your cleared for the approach runway 1 report over Strawberry Island.

They were doing the jumps over Selfridge. A friend of mine saw a news story on Local CH 20 TV last night, that they were taking some local officials for rides. He said they were doing Tandem jumps with some of the officials. Other than that, I have no idea why the Golden Knights are here?
