Wow.  I hope no one missed the fly-in since the ""day before" notice to the LML got posted the "day after".
 
LANCAIR FLYIN - Medford, Oregon
 
The fly-in went well.  Two Lancairs arrived Friday afternoon despite the hot temperatures.  Saturday morning the weather was warm with smokey skies and a temperature of about 70 degrees for the first arrivals at 8:30 AM.  Planes arrived throughout the morning with the last arrivals at about 11 AM.  Pilots reported smooth smokey air.  The early afternoon temperature was in the mid to upper '90's.  
 
The fly-in included 5 models (235/320, 360, Legacy RG, Legacy FG, and IVP) in attendance.  Lancairs arrived from Washington, Oregon, Nevada, and California.  Also several builders drove in.  We had a lot of locals taking interest in the rows of Lancairs lined up.  It was an impressive site.  
 
Everyone filled up with breakfast (pastries and fruit were the most popular) with the AeroDiner providing lunch.  Bottled water was the most popular item with 75 bottles consumed.
 
In the early afternoon pilots began departing to the north, south and west to the coast for a scenic flight, with a Legacy staying over for a cooler Sunday morning return to California.  
 
Thanks to all that attended.  I look forward to the next Lancair Fly-in wherever it may be.  I have attached a few pics of the day.
