futuredivot 0 #5 March 31, 2011 All fine-didn't see any major injuries. A lot of planes were 'relocated', vendor tents trashed. Looks like we dodged a cell or two that could have been as bad or worse. One of those airshow days that you get in an out of the porta potties just as fast as you can.You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iopenhi 0 #13 April 1, 2011 Those photos make me cringe... The shit really hit the fan here just after noon yesterday. I'm about 4 miles SW of Linder. We're not operating this weekend due to the air show; wifey had compiled an impressive honey-do list for the weekend, but I'll be spending all weekend cleaning up storm debris instead. On the bright side- I did get to enjoy a couple of tasty adult beverages with PsychoBob this week. That man needs some serious help. You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

airtwardo 7 #16 April 1, 2011 QuoteWere you guys scheduled to perform ? No not at Sun & Fun, we haven't done that show in years. The JAARS aircraft are also always at Oshkosh, that bird does a very impressive STOL performance every year at the show. I made my 1st jump at Air-Venture from that very airplane in 1984 and many others over the years from it, and the JAARS DC-3. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
