Was there as well and was impressed with how well it ran for a first year event. Several nice things like knowing the folks, having the grass strip like Geneseo, having the reenactors like Reading and Thunder but the best part is that it is only an hour from the house. The sand pile from past and future construction projects made a perfect location for the German Afrikan Korps to locate themselves. Spent most of the day helping a friend sell rides in his T-6. Should be even better next year.

Just got an e-mail from Gary at American Aero Service.
He asked me to post a couple of his photos from the weekend.
Here is one of his 88mm cannons in action.
Not exactly a good concealed carry piece, 8)
but very cool and a great addition to the show!
