Want a new Pitts Christen Eagle?




Cub knock-off on floats...


I don't know what it is, but it looked cool!


The glass panel C182...

Some nice stuff there Kevin, so what did your missus let you put a deposit on?

We're saving ourselves for a 707...  ;D

The Pitts is more of a laugh methinks Mind you that could be because it suits my flying style.....

Ah, some shots from Oshkosh at last.

Can't say I'm surprised. You would have got more than a disapproving look from me.

Want a new Pitts?

Don't mind if I do. Think the first one's a Christen Eagle.

Nice...please post as many Air Venture photos as you can. It's a not to miss event!

Sad a P-51 crashed with the pilot (forget his name) killled. I think that in the arrivals for this years Air Venture, 6 people lost their lives!  :(

the 'i don't know what it is' is a piaggio 188

Oh yeah, Airventure pics!!
Very nice so far... but I do have to be a wet blanket and join in the finger-wagging about putting the kids in some stranger's plane without permission...yes, there should be a "don't touch" sign or whatever, but if the owner isn't arround, it's common courtesy to assume that one should not touch,  let alone get inside. I'm sure your two did no harm, but if others see that, next thing you know the airplane is seeing more action than a coin-operated horsie outside the supermarket... and that's when stuff gets broken.
 However... if the owner is present, even if there's a "keep out/don't touch" sign, nine times out of ten, if you ask nice, they'll be delighted to let the youngins scamper all over the plane.... under their waatchful eye.

It was a dealer, not a private plane and I did get permission first, they just didn't like it and were too polite to say no...  ;)

ahwfully cool, like that cristian eagle biplane.

looks like fun kev

Well, the heck with them... why give permission, and then pout? And don't they want to sell airplanes? Sorry I doubted your airplane etiquette...

ahwfully cool, like that cristian eagle biplane.

Make that a "Christen Eagle"...........

.............and the knock-off Cub on floats is once again an Aviat Husky........we have one of them around here.......but then again, we have a good share of float planes.........  ;D
