We had a great time. It was a bit windy and bumpy but that's NOT going to STOP us. some photos didn't come because of the bumps.  The breakfast was real good, Pancakes, Scrambled Eggs, Sausage, HOT! Coffee and Orange juice. they even had to setup another table to fit everybody in. A very nice turnout, A Real BIG EAA Thanks to the N81 EAA chapter.

We did some IMPROMPTU  Formation Flying/photo shooting along the way.....   

HERE'S THE PHOTOS   :)    double click on any photo to enlarge!

I was the last to take off from Miller, but caught Walter just after Coyle VOR

I had to keep my foot on the break pedal to stay with Walter....

I've got Walter in my GUN SIGHTs NOW>>>>>>>

We caught up with Jesse just in time to start down into N81, he's the DOT just above the water tower off Walts left wing.

This is the G1000's SQUARE guage PFD, OH YEAH BABY!

The G1000's MFD, this plane is so SWEET!

Here is an RV7a, I can't wait until mine looks like this. NICE JOB N121PG!

The RV7a nicely done

Here's a couple of (soon to be ) Flying RVer's , Walter and Larry (my mug shot)

This is an RV6a also nicely done......

Jesse gave the RV7a a good look, very nice indeed!

Jesse even parked next to the RV7a, OK at least he parked CLOSE to the RV7a :)

OK guys Lets go get some more FLIGHT TIME!

Thanks Hammonton EAA

Alex took over the Co-Pilot seat with Walter for the ride back to Miller, Gene came along with me as my photographer, Great job Gene!

We put Jesse in the number 3 position this time, maybe I'll slow him down, this is a ROCKET POWERED C-150 YUP! the propeller just keeps him COOL

Jesse waiting for me to get my butt moving.

I'm reeling em in now!

I think I'm his wingman now, Is that Alex doing the FLYING? YUP, sure is, Dats my BOY! 15 years old last week, now a big shot CO-Pilot

see I told you Alex was driving, Gene got this shot and the next one is Alex getting back at me.

Here's the return photo from Alex and Walter. I really am smiling here.

Walter and I did a 360 so Jesse could catch-up but then he had to do a360 for us, Here he is coming around to get his GUN on us.

This is a great shot Gene got of Jesse back and behind my right wing while we bounced all over the sky.

Here we're checking to make sure Jesse has his GEAR DOWN, Oh YEAH, It's always down :)

Another really nice shot of Captain Jesse in his Rocket 150

Here comes Steve N292SugarPappa entering the Convoy into the pattern, Lets see He would be # 4 and the Piper Archer overhead the pattern is # 5

OK, Walter and Alex are down and clear now it's my turn for a GOOD crosswind landing, I HOPE, their watching and grading I think!

JUST LIKE BUTTER!

Here comes Jesse making it look easy, He even made FOXTROT turnoff, show off!

NICE LANDING JOB JESSE!

Lets see, Grumman, Cessna, Cessna, Cessna, OH Steves next, Yup, That sure looks like a good one also, Great Job guys!

He can Fly But he sure can't stay in focus>>>> Good Job Alex! you didn't land that Grumman did you? NO DAD, I didn't

After All this happy fun we had to go rescue a 1946 Stinson from certain DOOM. go see the EAA RESCUE Project (maybe!) photos!
