Check the "WIX Gatherings/Aviation Events" section of the forum, you'll find a thread about it there...

Unless I wasn't looking at the right thread all I could find is everyone talking about when they're going to be there and what hotel their staying at and getting together for a group picture... I'm looking for mustang and other warbird arrivals info...

At noon today, 7 to 8 birds are meeting at VPZ to go enroute.

Just saw Speedball Alice and Lady-Jo flying in a loose formation climb out from the Charles M. Schulz, Sonoma County Airport, Santa Rosa, CA. I believe their first fuel stop will be Wendover Airport, Utah, then on to Cheyenne, Wyoming, etc.

Rained until early afternoon, but then it cleared up to allow another 30 or so P-51s to come in, as well as some other interesting participants. The sun set over a fairly full ramp an hour or so ago, so I'll leave you with this image.

No just a cheap rug from a dollar store.
