Matt were you in the 14 or the photo plane. Sure looks good over Tahoe!

Good to meet you at the races.

Hi Daryl - likewise! This was my first trip to the races but I know I'll be back in the future.

That was Louise and my (not so) little brother in the 14, with me in the back of the RV-8 and Paul doing the driving. It's tough to take a bad photo with background material as pretty as Lake Tahoe!

Default I thought it was pretty cool myself.

Amanda and I got to see the 14A up close when we visited the factory last year.
