Hey all, its finally here! AMA rules apply, the event grows every year and this one wont dissapoint, the weather will be perfect and we will have some awesome prizes (PAU was very generous!) and friendly food service.

Come to one of the nicest fields around and hang out and fly! We can camp on site as well, there are no hookups, trailers are already showing up!

(Scale was 12 inches to the foot.)

That's awesome john..can't wait for the photo flood. Did you guys get a good turnout for both pilot's and spectator's? Is there any more big show's going on around here in the NW this summer? I wanna make sure i don't miss any more.

since the weater was awesome both days I think we had a record turnout, in the past its rained or been sketchy weather on one day, but nothing but sun and fun all weekend!

Plus the full scale fly by's were great, not too often your buzzed by P51's and T'6's, better than an airshow flyby for sure.

I need one more day to recoop, I must be getting old.. HAHA!

One thing I want to mention, was the large amount of donations by PAU/BME aircraft, big round of applause for them!
