Hi folks,

 

Just got back home after a great stay at Shady Bend and the Rotary Roundup. Sorry, some of you could not make it - it was a good one.  Seeing Tracy fire up his 20B for the first time was great!  The only down side is that I was the only rotary flyer to make it in due to weather and other circumstances.  One couple flew in (airline) from Washington state to attend.  Several make long car trips, from AR, MS, NC and GA as well as from around Florida. 

   Chuck Dunlap made certain that there was a flying rotary at this year's Copperstate Fly-in.  I talked to him Friday afternoon, and then he saddled up and flew home - halfway across Arizona (about a four hour drive, and he probably got home quicker than I got back to Mesa.)  I got a photo of him leaving, but couldn't zoom in far enough for it to be recognizable.  The rotary sound made it easy to know which RV was leaving, though.

   Saturday morning, his RV was back on the tarmac, cowl open for display.  Good show, Chuck.
