After weeks of truly dreadful weather, and an untold number of obstacles,
both natural and man-made, the Iowa City Big Kids Toys Show opened to the
public with a bang! What a turn-out!

The weather was *perfect*, Mustangs flew, T-6s growled, Pitts Specials
covered the town with smoke, helicopters flew in, kids received free Young
Eagle rides over the city, Vipers were test driven, and an awful lot of
people were fed pancakes and sausages...

And, best of all, Sunday (tomorrow), we get to do it all again! 7 AM
tomorrow morning the pancakes start cooking all over again, the Travel Air
starts selling rides, the Pitts will take you inverted (and beyond), and
planes from all over the Midwest will once again fill the pattern over Iowa
City. Stop in if you can!



And flights into mountain strips....oh wait, never mind. You're 1000
miles from the fun flying.
