Default RV-12 Spotted at Cottonwood AZ Airfest last week

My wife and I were on few days of vacation in Sedona AZ last week, on our way to Jerome we saw the airfest at the Cottonwood airport. Walking around I saw this yellow and red RV12 taxi and take off, it was so cool to see it fly.

I found your picture in the RV12 photo album, I was curious about the performance of the RV12 in that area. It is our dream ti retire in the area there

I think it's from Payson. I saw the red/yellow RV12 (pictured above) at Copperstate today. Neat little plane. First time I've been up close to really "look" at one.
