Hey everybody,

Took the Fam out to Grimes yesterday for the afternoon. What a great day. As was mentioned before there wasn’t much down time from one Mitchell hitt’n the blue to the next. The wind was crazy but looked like maybe it was perfect for take-off and landings. Right down the runway. Anyways thought I’d share a few pics . Really looking forward to tomorrow.
































A couple vids:

I 100% agree with both of these statements.

Current count as of 4:30 was 17 there and four more expected.

Sounds like Grumpy has made it.

That would be correct, Al... Grumpy landed just before sunset... She looks good next to a bunch of other B-25s!

Russian To Get Ya made it in yesterday. Carl and Tony's crew must have burned the midnight oil getting her ready...

Hate the Technicolor yawns! In all the years I've flashed the hash once, and that was in a customers airplane, fortunately it had leather seats and cleaned up pretty easily.

A few from this morning...







I need to reprocess these, but there's at least a representative example.
