Two more days before the official Sun N Fun start date. Beautiful day today for the SYI crew to fly to Lakeland. They brought two Light Sport Lightning LS-1s and five Jabirus. I am biased, but they are the best looking airplanes here. Certainly no other Light Sport aircraft can come close. Unfortunately I forgot to have my camera with me, so no arrival photos, but I will take it tomorrow and get some shots of them setting up shop in their booth and in the light sport mall.
The only slightly exciting event today was a Luscombe ground loop right in front of all the SNF activities. Folded the right main and bent up the right wing tip. What a bad place to do a bad thing. I feel sorry for the unfortunate pilot. This happened just before the SYI gang was to arrive so it delayed their arrival somewhat. In fact, due to the location of the mishap, they all had to take the "Earl SNF Taxi Tour Route" to get to their parking spaces.
I am not going to promise an email update every day, but will get at least a few out. My main emphasis will be to get some good photos and info for the May newsletter.
Blue Skies,
Buz
