Van-Aire Estates held their annual lunch fly-in today in Brighton, Colorado. I drove my Jeep, but my dad flew his RV-6a to the picnic. I've gone to this particular fly-in 3 years now, and I have to send out my thanks. The Van-Aire community always puts on a great picnic with lots and lots of food and plenty of planes. I didn't take very many pictures this time around. I did capture my dad and mom getting ready to leave. I also took a short movie of his take-off (42MB).

Spent Saturday at the annual Kelly Airpark Fly-In. It was a good turn out, lots of planes, lots of pancakes. Here's some pictures from the event.
If you're not a plane buff, you might not recognize what the next plane is. Along with two others I pictured above, this one does tricks. This video shows a fly-by of this plane -- no tricks in the video, but pretty neat. Look closely, the second picture shows a camera attached on the wing, and the last picture you can see his cheat sheet has his tricks on it.
