    The Mayor my brother dealt with was Dave Hahn and unfortunately I hear he passed away in 2018. Think it was something stupid like he fell off of a step ladder or something like that. Sad ending for someone who had such an impact on so many who interacted with him.

    Is this still on? Who's going? Am I welcome with my tailwheel on the wrong end? Im trying to rearrange work schedules. Hopefully I can pull it off.

    Just as a reminder if you are coming to the flyin, bring your tie downs. The ground is hard this time of year so the screw in type are not very good. Drive in type like the Claw will be the best.

    Also a BIG shout to Clint and the gang for putting it together. I didn't count, but was told there were 58 airplanes in all at one point. Was a hoot!
