Sunday looks like a fantastic day. Warm, no rain and winds of 5 Km's. I checked the field this morning and it will be perfect on Sunday.

Great day at the fun fly - good to see so many faces I haven't seen for awhile. There a rumor going around that the Canadian Military will be at the field next Saturday recruiting some of the "sharpshooters" in attendance today. That was a lot of fun.

Went down with two planes - came back home with three ... always a bonus day! :)

Kudos to all those who worked hard to make today such a success. It was a fantastic 'Fun Fly'; perfect weather (for a change), lots of planes, lots of flying, lots of people, and lots of fun.

Great pictures Al

You might know those rednecks from New Glasgow would come up with that great idea. I think it was Mike, or would it be Paul?, oh hell who knows. ;D ;D ;D

Great Day.
