Looks like Sunday is the only decent weather day, no cell here
though.  Be hanging out at the O Club bout noon, just in case.

Was there Saturday Pictures to follow.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I was there saturday.  Unfortunately, I left as all the cool planes came in.  Only saw the PBY and Hurricane down from the other side where our car was.

This year's aircraft selection was a bit lighter than usual.  I was
talking to Dan Damio and he said that the F4U
he usually drives was up in Connecticut, so that explains the
missing Hogs ;)

     The Sea Fury was kinda neat, and the PBY was fun as well.
Guppy35 will find this interesting, I met a guy who's uncle was
the crewchief on MyAchingAss.  He was very excited to get his
Franklin Mint P-51 Old Crow signed by Bud Anderson ;).

     Unfortunately I didn't hook up with any of the AHers there,
although I'm sure I left quite a few folks scratching their heads
by the P-47. :)

Murdr will be posting a plane we couldn't figure out what is was.  Was up by the b-25 mitchell.  It had no marking on it, not even paint, just bondo and primer,lol.  Was and 18cyl radial engine in it.
