Where she heading? Heard the radial and ran outside and looked up and saw her, I love the sound of the Skyraider wish I knew where she was going.

The gate was average; not as many as wished or expected but they didn't lose money I understand. It was extremely windy and cold. Many of the aircraft were unable to make it because of weather and several there were not able to perform due to the wind...wicked crosswind, high gusts and just one runway.

Even with the wicked crosswind the LadyO2Pilot stuck her landing and got a 10 from the Blastards. :lol: The 02 and Skyraider act looked really good in challenging conditions.

I will second the comment about the winds, there were several aircraft that after some rather interesting attempts to land and good decisions to go-around decided to go home.
