I have been going to this Anual EAA Chapter 501 Fly-In for as long as I can remember, only now Im old enough to do some fun things. I got to Judge Contemporary Classics, which are planes from post world war two to the late 60's. Their were only a few planes elligble so it was really easy. The rest of the day I was given a quad to run errans on back forth with, which was ALOT of fun.
The turn out was rather weak due to weather that couldnt make up its own mind. Hope you enjoy!
