I see Chuck S. won an award... "best antique ultralight." I think it
refers to
an airplane. :-)

I'mmmm baaaaack!! :-) Got in last night. Saw the car fires we all thought
at
first that a plane went in .Glad it wasn't a plane but those who lost cars
weren't happy,but at least there were no injurys.

Crowds were down for sure, that's based on observations and the amount of
literature we passed out.

That's interesting. We camped adjacent to a lady who volunteered at
registration. She said they were experiencing record crowds, and that they
were having to skimp on some of the give-aways at registration, such as the
stickers...


No zoom sightings so my $100.00 reward goes unclaimed :-( In fact there
were no
ANN sightings ,usually about 3 or 4 ANN reporters stop by to say hello.
There
were none to be seen unless I missed them but I wasn't told by any of the
booth
workers that any ANN people were there.So I suspect ANN was not in a
highly
visable mode.

A few RAH types stopped by even those were few and far between.

Our Hawk Owners party went well and the guys from Moto-Art stopped by for
a
while .

Hawks won 2 awards one was indeed for the best antique "airplane" not
pilot,LOL!! We formally presented the original CGS Hawk prototype to the
Sun n
Fun Museum. We had it on display during the show and did 3 crow hops with
it.I
flew it down the runway for the last flight and it was kinda emotional to
shut
the engine down for the last time. It will probably be on display for next
SnF.
I now have a plane in 2 museums ,my Easy Riser in the EAA Museum and my
Hawk
at SnF .

See ya

Chuck S
