    Flew the Super D to Lancaster, TX for the annual DFW CAF show. Perfect day to be out flying and enjoyed the show although not as many special planes as last year. We had a 17, 25, 26, and Sea Fury out last year. Some cool planes new this year were a T-28, Sky Raider, OV-1, and there were twice as many Texans. Last year I took part in the car show, but this year flew in while Tillman entered his 328. The car show was about double in size, so that was good.

    Here are two videos I took with the point and shoot that came out well, L-39 doing a flyby and then a very nice landing. First pic is the Super D in sea of the GA ramp.

    Great photos!
    Wish I could have been there, but am here weathering Hurricane Hannah in Virginia.
    I think that T-28 A model is a friend of mine from east Texas; with only about 50 or so A models out there, you start knowing one another.
    I used to think a T-6 was soooo gosh darn big when I started flying it - now it looks so tiny...

    Thanks again for the photos!
