Electric planes... one a Gentle Lady with the Aiptek Pencam, and the other a pod-n-boom (GP Spirit wing) with the Nikon..

I had a great time.
Congratulations to Joe C and Lowell for another successful hosting of BITW!
I got up real early this morning to shovel the dust off my motorcycle and get it ready to ride north.
Good to see all the jet guys and hang with uncljoe & Kim...Love you both!

Joe and Lowell,
Great event! You guys put on a first class show. I expected nothing less from you guys!
Even though the wind blew away the houses, the pyrotechnics show was awesome. That F-14 better check for AAA damage!
We appreciate you letting us come out and sponsor the event.

Joe and Lowell....
Thanks for a great weekend! We had a great time seeing old friends and making new ones!
We were so excited when Jake won the pilots choice for sport jet but we were floored when he was awarded the Colonel Bob Thacker award! What a thrill to have received this prestigious award. Jake has not let it out of his sight! I hope UJ posts some pictures of Jake and the Colonel....the youngest and the oldest come together at the same time for a great event!
Also would like to thank Ali for taking some time to fly with Jake and give some expert pointers. Ali, you can rest assured he listened to every word!
Finally, a thanks to Shui, you are Jakes hero and he loves flying with you... thanks for having the confidence in him to mix it up on the flight line....hopefully someone got a picture of that knife edge / inverted pass that you and Jake put together...outstanding!
George, congrats n your maiden with the big Viper, I had no doubt you could do it!
We look forward to next year!
Sin City is next, hope to see everyone there!

The Antelope Valley Wind Festival runs from January 1 to December 31... every year!
Next time that town needs to be built up to code!

Great weekend of flying and visiting with friends. Lowell and Joe, great job in pulling this event together for the pilots, spectators and especially the Make a Wish charity. Really enjoyed participating in the pyro event and chance to fly with Joe, Ali and David. Still need to check the bottom of the F16 for hit marks!!!!
A great big Thanks to Tony and the Antelope Valley club for hosting us. Without clubs like yours, we would not be able to have such great events.
Look forward to the next gathering.
