Yup, flying up in the morning, leaving in the afternoon. I have to fly the cattle car up tomorrow, so look for the Cessna 172 N61637.

I'll look for you. I'll be wearing an Aussie hat with a few pins in the front. Red beard and tall, can't miss me..........

Neat stuff Mike and Roger.

Sorry I didn't meet up with anyone. After doing my morning rounds I pretty much stayed over at the #77 Lancair with a bunch of friends.

It wasn't as long of line to leave as I expected, but did you waste any pixels on the 172 Roger?

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately when I recognized the tail number, you had already gone around the corner, with the sun directly behind you.

That would be us, and it would also explain why my friend was asking who would take a picture of a 172 =)

Your correct Chris, a picture of a 172? But then again, nobody has yet to figure out my madness. Here's an example off our website from this same event from last year: Image
