Looks like this year is the 75th anniversary of the first Norseman flight. Comeing up quick July 23rd. Hopefully there will be a good turnout this year. Not very often you can get an inexpensive ride in a noisy, gangly, slow flying, piece of history.
This will be my 6th time going...always a lot of fun. If you see a fellow around a yellow antique bird...your welcome to say hello.

I had a front row seat for the festival in 2006 (had a lakefront apt on Howie Bay). It was a GREAT time..and seeing 11-12 Norsemen making a low pass over Howie Bay is a pretty spectacular sight! If you havent been, its a must do thing for ALL pilots! Have fun mikegtzg! maybe ill see you there this yr!

Just 2 more sleeps!!

Looks like I'm going to make it this year...
Prob be the highlight of my summer.

Will you be driving one?

'48 is your old man going?

I don't think so.

Mother Hen laid the law down; "No more driving that Thunder Chicken~"

Awww....she's no fun at all.

I'll be there!! I'll be on...static display in a ...king air.

Anyone coming up to me and expounding the virtues of "real" pilots vs. "wheel" pilots will be expected to buy me a beer at the howie later.
Don't be hatin' - us landlubbers need love too.

So? How was it? Somebody must have taken some pictures they could post!!

I made it there last year but I´m in the Sudan this year so it was a bit far to commute!

Fighter Pilot, you must have a couple of shots to share, you took some great ones last year!

Just got back tonight, once I get some time tomorrow I'll post some shots I took of the weekend.
