That's what the EAA292 guys did with their Nieuport replicas. Check the series of three pictures partway down, here: http://www.eaa292.org/noon_patrol/may_02.html And if you keep looking at the other pictures on that page, you'll see that the Nieuport replicas use rudder bars, just like Piets...

We have had over a week of really hot days and high humidity. Memorial Day weekend was really the last nice weather we've had. Really unusual for us to be this hot in June.

I'm hoping for picture perfect !

Corky Hi Corky and all !! Preliminary Itinerary: It looks like I'll be departing Cook Airfield on Wednesday, July 20, in the early morning...say around 10:30 am. I've never flown up around the North side of Kansas City, so I'll pick up a precise heading of anywhere between 360=BA and 020=BA. Maintain that course till I have to go pee...probably 2 or 3 hours. Find some fuel & services, show all the locals my plane, and tell them where I'm coming from and going...that takes about 1 1/2 hours. If the winds are strong out of the South, I might be up into Iowa, before I get 'er to turn right. I met a gal on the Internet that lives in Sioux City Iowa, and I plan on stopping there and meet her. If things go well, I might not even make it to Brodhead, or I might have a passenger with me !! Hummm...I'll have to figure out how to strap the cargo on the belly of the plane. I'll have a cell phone with me, and if Corky is agreeable, I could let him know of my whereabouts.

I missed Saturday evening dinner, giving rides. Couldn't help it...the Sky was calling me !! After dark, Banjo Larry was pickin' & grinnin' at the camp fire, along with some juce harps. He flew a Starduster II in to Brodhead, and gave me a ride, and introduced me to Aerobatics !! Way Cool !! Does anyone know if the Hatz are going to be there again this year ?

I have a space in the hangar and a spare room at the house. I'll also be ready to continue on down to Broadhead also.
