Another successful year!

Here's a few unedited shots from this weekend's festivites at Glenndale, Indiana (8I3 ident.) A few quick shots before I go to bed, but man was it a blast!

150 bucks for a T-6 ride with my dad, and Nathan Davis took over for a while too. All proceeds go to an SMA charity, which raises cash for SMA disease research. Dad did somewhere north of 20 rides the past two days.

Here's a shot my dad took when I was flying up to Glenndale, pardon my shoulder harness, it looks tacky! :roll:
Image

Here's Nathan in his T-6D, rebuilt buy Tim's guys at Midwest Texans in Huntington, IN. Laura Stants, an organizer of the event, is in the back seat.
Image

Here's the highlight, more to come. I'm gonna hold out on the better shots for awhile, the lighting was pretty bad that day. That's my dad in the '6, and Nathan is in his Mustang.

Trey, it's no wonder your dad didn't let you fly for any more of the pictures. You can't even keep the plane right side up!!!!

I especially like the sunset picture. Do you think you could photoshop mine into looking that good? I'll have it at Terre Haute, along with the Tri-State Mitchell. Will you and your dad be there?

Guess again. Other than the colors, that's the real pic.
