Who organized the fly-in.
Don't ask how he got the
name "Hooter".
Jake our tour bus guide.
Where they
load the
weapons on
the aircraft.
Paint shop.
Wonder if they
would paint an
RV-9A?
After the tour it was time to eat, after we all gathered
here (had to wait for the other buses) we all walked over
to the "Falcons Nest Club"
After lunch we all went into the media room for a series of briefings and slide
shows from the various agencies stationed there.
Trying to beat out the other 59 aircraft that flew in today.
Had a great time and looking forward to the next one.
We took off at taxiway C and still had 7,000' of runway in front of us.
That's taxiway D & E to the left.
Heading home
Who is that on my six?
Twelve miles out and have the runway in sight.
