Engines are cranked and here we come. Should be overheard in about 15-20 mins.

Now if I could only drive 300 miles in 15 mins.

TBM "Ida Red" was on the ramp at KVPZ at 1:30PM today. I'm assuming its on its way to KOSH.

Yeah, I saw a TBM that looked like Ida land at OSH

Now to get some sleep and get this week going.

THanks for holding up the fort! I'll be there Thurs with the troops. Love to see those British fighters.

[mustangdriver]

I can't wait. See you in a couple of days

[Ztex]

( I was afraid you got held up at the Vet )

Great start!

[sdennison]

Looks like Thursday for me! Can't wait. Looking forward to the get together as well.

So what happened with the big CAF gaggle that y'all were talking about? Did they get there together, or what?

Just saw the Lancaster lifting off out of Hamilton about 20 minutes ago. The B-25 was ahead of her.
Not sure if Rick got away early with the Lysander or not. Weather has been terrible here the last week, and looks like today is the only good day!
Wish i was out to Oshkosh this year. Still haven't made the trek, always something going on at this end.
