I dropped by the CASM yesterday for the Wings and Wheels event and thankfully the weather Gods cooperated. It looked liked most of the aircraft that they had expected arrived. The only no show was Hawk 1 from VWoC but they had a tech issue which happens to the best of us.

It was also nice to chat with a number of regular photo bug types and share the gossip and rumors before the airshows season has really started..

It isn't an easy place to take photographs of landing & takeoffs but I gather it is more of a static display even...

The Viper Boys did put on a nice group of flypasts for those that waited and I did enjoy listening to the classic Mig15 doing her start up.. :D

Cheers
Andrew

I was too busy with backseat riders in our other Harvards on Saturday to make it down.
