Thanx! Your photo posts always brighten my day. I notice that whenever I volunteer @ FHH I tend to hang out more around the UPF-7 than the other aircraft.

Gosh, I wish I could have been at 2 events at once, but I was busy at Hamilton all weekend.

I still get a buzz every time I see a cabin Waco!

Such handsome aircraft! And I recognize a few of those folks. Fly safe this weekend everyone. I'll be with y'all in spirit.

Ratch the disconsolate

Great pics! Thanks for sharing.

Saw that UBA at a local fly-in earlier this spring. Beautiful aircraft. I was surprised to see that it had side-by-side seating.

Thanks for posting some photos Andy. I'll try to post some this week. Sorry I missed you at the flyin but I did not get down there until late in the afternoon both Thursday and Friday due to some issues at work. All things considered, I think it was a great flyin but the weather was terrible in every direction so I was surprised by the turnout of aircraft. Including the Wacos based on the field, I think we had 36 or 37 planes at the event but it was so hot and humid during the day, there was not much flying going on. We managed to get everyone into a hangar but I'm still not sure how we did that. With St. Charles Muni getting ready to close on July 1st, we have just about run out of hangar space and shade port space.

I sure wish I could make it over your way next weekend but I can't afford to take any time off right now. Fly safe and please post lots of pics like you did last year!

Beautiful pics. The YKS-6 looks like a beast. never saw one of them before. I can't wait to come and hang out with your gang again.
