Well, almost too good to be true. With various weather models calling for rain Saturday morning, and chances of Lightning, we've decided to move to Sunday, the rain date.

Every thing is the same except flying time starts at 10:00.

The flying Gods favoured your choice of dates there Sandy.  Grin Grin

Had a great day doing search and rescue from the corn. Two recoveries with one without any damage.

After all that hub bub, the winner of the 2022 Ches Lockhart Memorial Cup is Kevin Beaver.

His Sopwith Pup is a fine aircraft, and flies so well with the Saito 3 cylinder 4 stroke engine. We were trated to see Kevin's plane, flying along with Jeremy's Fokker, and Steve Norman's Nieuport. Great stuff.

Kevin sets a new standard, being the only flier to have won the trophy twice. So now the gauntlet has been thrown for coming years.
