Well the turnout for a Waco weekend was fantastic. 23 pilots showed up from the DFW area, Houston and Austin. Robert and Dan put on a really good fishfry. Thanks to Ronnie and Debra for the desserts. The cheesecake, lemon cake and the funny brownies were great

Thanks to all for a really great flying day with a great bunch of people. Great turnout and weather with a friendly wind straight down the runway. Managed 5 flights on the Hunter - have finally found a cg that works.

Looking forward to the next outing.
