Default Jay Pratt gets the credit for the first pictures

He sent me three this afternoon. :-)

OK, the ball is rolling and I’m looking forward to seeing pictures that get added.

I hope everybody has a wonderful time!

Default Just two RV-8’s……

OK, we’ve been talking about getting these two RV-8’s together for a photo shoot for something close to 20 years…but it never happens! This morning I taxied up to Homebuilt HQ, and the only airplanes in front were the Delta Dyke (that’s always there) and the Doll…no one was out there directing me to a spot, so I saw what I wanted, and took it! Beautiful Doll and the Valkyrie!

15 hours later and the Brantel crew is parked on 5th between Elm and Cottonwood. First year for me in an RV with street tires!

Funny thing is….30 minutes after setting up camp, it starts raining!

Default No cookies for me this year Tanya

I will miss your cookies. I will not be at Oshkosh this year. It has been a 31 year consecutive run, so I am taking a year off.
