Greetings All -

For those of us here in the Midwest, or for others looking for a road trip to take, the Wabash Valley Soaring Association is hosting their annual Vintage/Classic Sailplane Regatta at the airport in Lawrenceville, Illinois. It starts today and goes thru Father's Day Sunday. I'm heading over for Friday and Saturday and will post some pics after I get back. The weather looks to be very good so here's hoping for a great weekend!

Enjoy the Day! Mark

Greetings All!

A few pics from the event - excellent weather for flying but a bit tough for photos with haze and heat shimmers.

Enjoy the Day! Mark
