while the world watched Kitty Hawk this morning, over 1000 people and 30 plus planes
made their way to Brigham City UT (BMC) to watch the flight of the Utah
State University Wright Flyer. Modeled after the 1905 Flyer, it has flown over
200 times and made several flights today, taking off under its own power.  It
has flown at several locations this summer including several flights at Wright
Patterson, some with astronauts, John Glenn and Jake Garn in the right seat.
It is reported to be the first plane to take off and land at Huffman Prairie
in over 60 years.

It was thrilling to part of this little re-enactment on the celebration of a great
day in history..
