Excellent Event and great job by the committee and Miss Nellie!:applause:

Gotta run out of here, see you all in a couple of days.

We blew out a tire landing in Allahabad when we hit a piece of rubble from one of those Bee Gees (ah I mean Gee Bees) that didn't quite grease the landing. :biggrin-new:

We really gave the crowd in Charleville a thrill watching us slipping to loose altitude fast, make a steep 180 degree steep bank turn, and land halfway down R/W 30!:adoration:
