What did you see or do at SnF that made the trip memorable for you?
I ran into to Claudio Tonnini almost the minute we walked in the door. He just finished his RV-8, Purple Passion II that replaced his purple RV-4 which he sold to someone in South America.
In the Vendor booths an old friend and his wife, Dixie and Mary Walker, were selling autographed aviation collectables. Dixie and I used to fly together 12 years ago. Good guy and very interesting. He used to be on Bob Hoover's ground crew and has some wild stories to tell. Like riding with Hoover when he tail slid the Sabre Jet in practice.
In addition I met Mahlon, Ron with Dynon, the Van's crew, and more.
The disappointment was that there were others I had hoped to meet but did not.
Seeing the P-51 do a fly-by with the F-22 and F-15 was very cool.
