Got here late Thursday afternoon. No rain so far.
Colling's Corsair on field and I think it's HAG's C-47.

Hope the weather holds so A/C can get in.

Mike, I guess it's hard to see what I look like from my pic....you can see Donald Duck but not me!!
I'll be there wandering around by myself, probably with my Boston Red Sox hat on!

By the way, for those going and have been there before, if i want to get soem good shots of the planes takin off and landing, any particular place i should go and also, do people put up chairs in the front and leave them to save their place at this show like some other's i've been to?

Well I'm off to hook up with Ryan. I'm a bit of a plaguebearer at the moment so if I don't shake you hand try not to be offended.

I'm going to try and find some wifi in the geneseo area, if If find some I'll do a daily report, if not then I'll report in Monday night.

Bit of a french strangler this AM. Staying in Rochester (place has a PC in the lobby) and took a ride down to the field. Warbird Digest B-25 was there along with second C-47 plus A/C from yesterday. Warbird Adventure T-6s also. Hope weather clears. Field was dry before this weather so that's good.

Looks like with the rain I'll be off to some mall now with the Mrs.

It was great seeing you again Cindy and it was great seeing all the WIXers gathered together and hanging out. It was a fun time and I especially enjoyed meeting several WIXers for the first time. Geneseo is my favorite airshow and I will be working on an article tonight with photography by TimAPNY. It was incredbly fun. We had a dozen WIXer's present as well as several members of the WOW Auxillery (Wives of WIX, those amazingly patient and tolerent women)

I just want to say a quick thanks...so... THANKS!!!

Same here, thanks to everyone. Everyone was so nice and receptive. Going in to it, I was a little nervous to meet some WIXers (you guys put my knowledge to shame) and it's a little 'odd or weird' looking for people from their computer avitar pics and what not, then simply stating, hey I post on the same message board as you! But not for one second after I made my first introduction to Mike H and Tim did I feel 'out of place'. Thanks for that, it really made my trip, to everyone I met. I look forward to seeing you guys soon.
Of course the show was pretty good too!

Everyone take care, can't wait till Michigan now!!

Hi Cindy,

I am really sorry I missed out on meeting you and your husband. Were you there on Saturday or Sunday?

Mike

Cindy · **Posted:** Tue Jul 12, 2005 7:22 am

Hi Mike,
We were only there on Sunday. Hopefully, we'll meet at the next airshow (though I don't know what we're going to next)
