Default Bonfire Flights at Spruce Creek

Here at Spruce Creek during annual Toy Parade (December) and Bonfire (January) Gaggle Flight always put up a big fly-by. On last Saturday we must had 40+ airplanes in the air at the same time. Before Gaggle launch, a TBM and P-51 made a few low passes. After the Gaggle fly-by, two Aerostars made a formation pass. RVs are well represented in the flight. I was part of a 14 ship Lakes Flight and was with the lead Aerostar. Here are a few photos to share. Most of the photos are taken by Gary Rosier .

TBM and P-51 positioned for the flight.

Looks like a fun day. I love the Aerostars - what a great plane. Our company had one for about 10 years and it was very nice. The formation flying with the RV's was great too. Wish I was there!
