Lots of pics of the planes, some people and the arial ballet (Very nice).

Thanks for the pics, Tom! That was a much needed fix for the PPC starved like myself...

A few questions - I get the sense that SixChuters were 'outgunned' at their own soiree, were there more guys selling other brands there than expected?

Also, this one pic is throwing me - did 6c redesign the fuel tank on the Spirit, or is this somebody's custom work? Anybody know this guy?

Hoping for a thunderstorm-free weekend,

Joe

Six chuters were in full force at the flyin, of the many many planes, there were also one Buckeye, four Airframes Unlimited NW (but there were a few other AU owners there from the area that didnt drag planes due to weather), Two destinys, A fusion and an XLT the fusion was getting an updated rear gear assy mounted, the factory had noticed a potential issue and sent out kits to the owners. Very good service IMO. And we also had one Powered Paraglider.

There was no question the vast majority of the aircraft were 6C.

I got home to have several friends let me know of a local crash of a PPC while we were at the flyin, it turned out to be a PPG, and from what I have heard the pilot is ok, but no idea on causes yet. Was not related to flyin at all.
