I flew to a small county airport today with a couple friends for a small flyin. We flew at approx 1000' agl. As we got closer to the airport we encountered quite a bit of FW air traffic. We descended to a lower altitude thinking it would be under the FW traffic but we encountered FW traffic at the lower altitude also. Some were announcing their location as they neared the airport and some were not. The airport does not have a tower. We waited for a break in the FW traffic and announced ourselves, entered the pattern and landed. There was a pretty good turnout. There were a couple food vendors, a helicopter giving rides and there's also a skydiving club that operates there. We stayed for awhile and then headed for home before any afternoon thunderstorms developed. It was a good flight there and back.
