GOLDEN ERA FLY-IN
SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 17, 2011
Twenty-three flyers turned out for
the “Golden Age & Light Plane Fly Inn” on the September 17th. There
was an interesting mix of aircraft ranging from WW-I to golden age types such as
a Gee Bee and continuing to modern light planes like the all composite Cirrus.
The weather was great and I believe I
had the only crash of the day: my ancient fuel-soaked Aeronca C-3 broke in half
on a downwind deadstick. The “Pilots Choice “ award went to Dave Barry’s
beautiful Stinson Reliant.
Raffle Prizes: The Hobby Warehouse on
Rt. 70 provided an electric T-34 ARF which was won by Dick Bobb. The new Gator
Hobbies (soon to be located on Clark Ave.) donated a 6 channel Futaba Radio won
by Brad Termaat. Gift items for registered flyers: Frank Tiano provided a
generous supply Zap products and Nick Ziroli donated hats and modeling CD’s.
Thanks to the many club members who
helped make this an enjoyable and successful event. David Hasler, CD
