A couple months ago, Sheryl and I were making final plans for our wedding day, and it was an easy decision to pick our favorite venue for the special occasion..it had to be in our RV-4 "Casper". On Saturday 4/18/15, at 1100, we pulled it off ! The "wedding party" was a five ship airborne group, F1 Rocket,Cessna 206,Bonanza,Citabria,and our RV-4. Our good friend Scott, whom is a minister and pilot along with our mothers were in the 206 and Bonanza. "We gather here today in formation to celebrate..." was the opening line, and Sheryl and I then read our vows and performed the ring exchange while passing over our home airport of 8A7 (Twin Lakes) at approximately 5280 feet MSL for the "mile high marriage" Since we couldn't do the standard kiss in the -4, the closing lines were " you may now roll your bride"! After landing we had the string of cans hooked to the tailwheel and did a celebratory smokey burnout doughnut for the ramp crowd..what a day!
