I wanted to thank the RVs that came to visit our Canard fly-in at Columbia this weekend. Great looking planes!!
Hope you weren't upset that we had to move you from in front of the gas trucks..... The manager gets really pissy about a couple things and parking there is one of them. Glad you found my staked out overflow spot.
We had quite an interesting turnout this year. Mike Melville and his wife flew up in the Long EZ he took around the world. Has over 4500 hours on it now. He spent all 3 days and was a terific source of stories and experiences. As was Dick Rutan, who flew up in a Columbia. Dave Ronneberg, designer of the Berkut brought his O-540 beauty and demonstrated it's power. 2 other Berkuts came as well as a couple new Cozys and a recently completed Long EZ. Maybe 35 canards in all.
A lot of these guys know their aircraft and appreciated seeing the RVs. You're always welcome! Thanks again.
