Come on out and have some Freedom, the dates are 9.21-9.24, it is always the last full weekend in September, so this year it is a week early. I have some great flights planned, low level yanking and banking and a good cross country, hoping to visit 3 other airports. Come on out and have some fun.

I'm hoping to head to Britta's with the "gypsy wagon rig" ... next weekend .... a week there ... she & I plan to fly our gyros out ( about6 hours) ...Mark will go by ground ... to rent an RV for the week - for us to share & have cooking, sleeping & bathroom comforts of home! ( kinda)
with new-truck luck ... hope to BE THERE! (....WITH A GYRO - this year!)

Looking at the picture it seems to be maybe a KB with a rotax on it.
Sad sad sad.... RIP
It has been a good while thank God since the last fatal crash....
Brings dark clouds over events like fly ins.
We still talked about Chris Bowden at Wrens and that's been about 7-8 years?
Chris was an awesome guy and built a great gyro.
Too bad.... losing friends is never easy.
We just hope he didn't suffer.
Same goes for the big ficker. We know now that he was at peace at the time of the impact.
I am truly hoping Yuri was the same way.
:cry

We appreciate the facts that you'll bring Dave.
No reason to speculate we prefer the information that comes from the ones who know them.
Condolences to all touched by this tragedy.
