The weather forecast looks good, and I hope to be out flying for several hours!

Anyone else?

Travis and me might make it to the field tomorrow, if any instructors can watch us solo...  ;D

I don't mine watching your flights in between mine.

Great day!

Hot but light wind.

Flew my A10 but one of the wheels wasn't retracting, nor was it in the right alignment; I landed the plane gently and slowly with no serious damage.

I flew my Albatross twice, and that was beautiful.

Peter was flying lots of nice planes and did a lot of touch-n-gos with his Piper Cub. Glenn flew a giant old timer, and his big Mustang. Rob was there with his son. Chris and a couple Ryerson guys were flying as we watched. It was really nice!

Lots of flying, and at the end, a mid-air with my Northstar and Greg's Stryker. My Northstar gently glided done inverted with minor damage. Greg's plane was hit pretty badly.

I think there were about 15 people flying.

We had a couple visitors: Bill Miché (an old friend of Jack Higgins) and Ed stopped by as I was leaving.
