Oct 23-25, 12 O-clock high at Lakeland, Florida.
Miles: from Mac's place 350 miles, return home: 1000 miles.
The location changed from last years all grass field to an 800' asphalt runway with grass on the far side.
A good 70 pilots attended the meet. Clear, sunny days the entire time. The flight line kept very busy. Along with prop planes there were lots of jets (scale only) also flying. Two pilots went through 50 gallons of fuel during the 3 day meet. (meet renamed from last years monster planes flyin).
Scott was kind enough to let me stay at his house for the two weeks between the two meets.
