The main event is a sporting clays shoot that is open to the public, it's a blast ! 100.00 per shooter, if you don't have a 5 man team, they'll find you one to shoot with. Free admission to the event, with great food. Come out and see us.

I took these today, Feb 23rd. The Mars did a flyby, a scoop and a drop then landed. For those in the Vancouver area this is an excellent chance to see it up close. The Mars is at Gary Point in Steveston (Richmond) for the rest of today and part of tomorrow. Bring your camera!

787 Z4 flew for the first time today around 1235 from KPAE. It is amazing just how quiet the new 'sharks teeth' fan cowls can make 77K of thrust seem, just a very slight, low buzzing sound

WIXer and tailwheel snob "sdennison" getting his nosewheel/complex/high-performance endorsement from sh1t-hot WIXer instructor "Stormin" in his Beech T-34 Mentor. "Stormin" hangars his T-34 at Waukesha County Airport, WI (KUES) and also keeps his hands warm flying a T-33 and T-37. Way to go Scott!!

Beat me to the punch T33driver! :wink: Life is REALLLLLL GOOOOOD right now. I am one lucky Dude!

I followed that with taking my youngest son up in the Citabria right after my "humbling" session in the T-34 and you are right, Stormin is an amazing instructor. 8)
