Wow Curtis, great stuff right there, you're a lucky man !!!

There is a small antique aircraft fly in here in Indy each year (Hagerstown IN) for folks on their way to Oshkosh. They fly out the next day as a formation on their way to the show up north. About 30 aircraft stopped in this time for an over-night (Waco's, Monocoupe, Fairchild, Travelaire, Stearmans, Stinson, plus several kit planes too) and the perform a quick show (fly-bys, formations, flour sack bomb drops, ballon busting, throw a roll of TP out the cockpit and see how many times you can cut the tail before it hits the ground, etc.) Plus there is a bunch of Model A's and T's that show up. Last year it was the Model T celebration - so the field was covered with about 1000 T's and about 30 planes. Lot's o fun for propeller heads !
