I'm jealous!
I love DC-3's, worked a contract in NC and a guy there had done alot of
time restoring and flying them out of Athens GA on cargo runs. I don't
remember the name of the company, but both he and his wife were pilots on
them. I'd love to go for a flight in one!

Hey Jay, how was the turnout???

Awesome!

The weather was perfect, and the crowds were very, very large. We ran out
of ribbon for the helium balloons we were handing out to the kids, and we
ran out of coupons that we were handing out to the people who stopped at
our booth. We got a zilliion entries in out drawing (for a free night in
the honeymoon suite), and everyone seemed to really enjoy the food and
airplanes.

Jim & Tami Burns flew down in their pristine Aztec, and we had a great
time with them and their most excellent kids. I don't know how many
planes flew in, total, but it seemed like a heavy turnout. Certainly more
than last year.

And the DC-3 was AWESOME. Mary and I finagled jump-seat rides on it,
and, wow, what a cool old plane. I took a few zillion pix of the day, and
will be posting them to our webpage soon.

One of these years you've got to figure out how to make that Ercoupe fly
in Iowa. Geez, we're not *that* far away!
