I guess time has gotten away from me.  It's been quite a while since I posted anything, but I didn't realize it had be quite THIS long!  It has been a very busy fall, and time flies (whether you're having fun or not)!

September and October were great.  Quite a bit of flying, but lots of other stuff going on too.  One of the highlights was the Midwest Antique Airplane Club's annual "Grassroots" fly-in at Brodhead WI.  I flew the Waco to Brodhead for the day on Saturday, and I was accompanied by Brady Lane, a fellow EAA staffer who did a really neat video presentation of Grassroots. See the video at this link:

I managed to remember my camera as well.  Here are a few pictures from Brodhead.  First, a nice shot of the Brodhead Airport sign being "guarded" by a couple of Pietenpols.

Here's a shot of my Waco at the event.

Of course I always take pictures of other Wacos in attendance as well.  Here is Tom Brown's cabin Waco framed by a really nice F-2 and my F-7.

Here's a full shot of the F-2.  It's for sale in case anyone might be interested!

And of course there were other types at the fly-in too.  Here's a nice shot of a Stearman and a Travel Air parked together.  The Stearman belongs to Merrill and MaDonna McMahon of Wausau, WI.  They just finished a complete restoration of the plane and it's a beauty!  The Travel Air is pretty darned nice too.

And here's a really nice Hatz.

Grassroots is always a great fly-in, and this year was no exception.  Many thanks to all the MAAC members who helped make it happen, as well as the members of EAA Chapter 431, based at Brodhead.  Great Job one and all!
