I agree- it was a truly great day (another one coming up in November). The minature stuff was very interesting. Watchig a beautifully scale P-47 that you could fit in the palm of your hand was awesome. Troule is, it was so fast, it was like trying to follow a fly in the living room. Too fast for my reflexes.
By the way, you missed a Jet. I flew my ducted fan Elipstick 260 Jet. Its an Elipstick 260 with the ducted fan in a pod up front on the usual motor mount. The Red Flame Blaster (stolen from ny TA-7C kit) was installed in a styrofoam coffee cup off the "Roach Coach". I was inspired one day when I found the fan unit fits perfectly in the coffee cup. For a long time the fan unit still smelled of coffee when I ran it.

I agree guys, one of the best little fun fly's I've had in awhile. The sky was filled with all kinds of different planes. Lots of flying was going on.
Flew the Vampire, Pampa Jet Trainer, Spirit of St. Louis and my B-2 bomber. This best part was flying the last flight of the day with Gregg. He launched my Pampa and then stepped to the runway and took off his T-33, both planes flying together,a great way to end a perfect day.
