Thanks Roger. Browsed for a long time, but decided not to be so lazy and leave my usual stomping ground every once in a while.

By the way, the 109 didn't fly on Saturday, so I presume that was a sunday shot? What happened to all the FCer's? Last year there were a bunch at Watsonville, this year I didn't see a one..........

Yeah the 109 shot is from Sunday. The rest of the pics are a mix of Saturday and Sunday.

I don't know where all the FenceCheck guys were, I guess they are dying out like the fly-in seems to be too...

This is the worst I've seen at Watsonville since I started attending in 1974. I've only missed one showin all these years. Even the years with rain or heavy fog still had a ramp full of antiques and classics. This year there were more tractors (with four wheels) than biplanes. No Staggerwings, no cabin Wacos, no Fleets, no Meyers OTW's :cry:

Great photos, there's not much nicer than a Yellow Cub in a blue sky.
