I just got back from the museum's Fly-In and had a great time. I'll upload more pictures when i get back to my house. Until then Enjoy some samples.










There were severe reperpurcustions for flying outside the strictly enforced pattern around the museum.

Any L-17s?

There were 3-4 L-17's that I saw there.

Hey O-2

Were you there Sat? If so how many aircraft were onhand? Wish I knew you were gonna be in town. Would have been nice to meet another WIX'er in the flesh.

I wasn't able to make until today due to family obligations. And I was surprised that there seemed to only a handfull of aircraft at the show. If I had to guess, without looking through all my pictures maybe 10. Still It was great to be there regardless. I had a great time talking with folks.

Sorry I'm a bit late with this. Anyway.....I was there both days. From what I could make out, there were 10 L-19/ 0-1s, four L-17s, three L-16s, and one each L-2, L-4, L-5 and L-21. And let's not forget the T-6 "Mosquito" that flew over from Greene County each day and made a few passes.
I thought it was a pleasant little fly-in, but if I'd have heard the announcer mention his wife's Aeronca one more time I was going to knock him off the stand

Ok, so it took me a while to get back to my house. Actually I just realised that I never did up-load the rest of the pictures.


So without futher ado:



































































Here are a couple of videos that......well to be honest they suck, but they will atleast serve to give and idea of the day.






Some of the other sites at the show.
















Good times were had by all. Can't wit the next years events at the museums. Maybe I'll post the picturs of that event in the same year this time.

God, that L-21B brings back memories. I worked on that thing through out my early teens and was a flight crew member on it at Air heritage. Those are it's real markings.
