Default Annual Iowa City Fly-In Breakfast August 28

Our annual Sertoma (SERvice TO MAnkind) breakfast will be held here in
Iowa City on Sunday, August 28th.

They always lay out a good spread, and all proceeds go to benefit a
good cause.

This year they're adding a few ground displays -- an Air National Guard
Chinook, and an old C-47/DC-3 from World War II.

Put it on your calendar -- it's always a great time!

The Lafayette, La. Sertoma club does a 2 day show at KLFT as well,
usually in October...

Maybe it was their last one?

The time (start and stop) would help otherwise it may not be worth it
to fly 3-4 hours for nada.

I'm planning on attending the Fly-In breakfast at Mankato this Sunday and
have Iowa City penciled in for the following Sunday.

Right-o! We'll have our booth there, handing out balloons to the kids and
spreading the aviation gospel...

:-)

And if you're flying 3 - 4 hours, I might suggest joining us the night
before? I haven't been at the inn for a couple of days, but last I looked
we had plenty of availability.

Hey Jay, how was the turnout???

Owatonna had a good turnout at its Fly-In this morning with a wide range of
aircraft types there; RV-x's, Cessna 140 to 337, a lot of various
experimentals, warbirds, etc... Probably 80-100+ aircraft total.

If I had gotten up and left earlier today, I would have tried IOW instead of
OWA. This was a cheaper breakfast, with fruit!. ;-)

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!

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!

at the nearby brew-pub then they took all the kids to their house while
Tami
and I retired to the Pan Am Clipper Suite.



WAIT A MINNITTT. There is a WHOLE BUNCH OF STUFF missing between these two
paragraphs. Details. I want DETAILS.

{;-)


This morning we jumped in their van and met up with them at IOW where they
had our kids, Nick and Megan, together with Becca, busy blowing up
balloons



There was also a small car show
of mostly vintage Porches and other mega buck sports cars.

Were these front Porches or back Porches?

The Ercoupe will fly in Iowa, just hasn't been in that part, yet. So, I just
misspelled today and went to OWA instead of IOW, close enough??? ;-)

One of these days...
