Where's the flyby video from the ground? :(

Good question??? I gave the vid cam to Rob to take with him on the ride...

Hang on... Not sure if I got a good one. I'll look...

I literally showed up about 20 seconds before Bill zipped across the field for the first time!...
Here's one I took when Bill cycled the landing gear...

Here's one by TJR...


Awesome and loud!

The L-29 Delfin was the first jet aircraft ever designed in Czechoslovakia. It's a two-seat jet aircraft made by Aero Vodochody and was used by the Czech Air Force.

And here is the flyby of the L-29, piloted by Bill with Rob as a passenger.

Here are some interesting photos that I took this weekend...

This is Rod Gilbert who had no clue that there was a Big Bird/3D Fly-in going on... Yeah, he flew it once...

Robert has acquired Billy Frost's Bob-E Cat...

Robert is talking about putting either a Webra .55 or a G-size rocket motor on it... (I hereby am offering myself in advance for test flight duty, Sir!...)

Mr. Bou was all tuckered out. The registration desk was just too much for him to handle...


He wasn't faking it... He was OUT!


Alvin suffered from some sort of sickness too, or so he claimed...


And Tony joined the North Enders in a mass gaggle of Cubs! Four of them. Trying to show off his low pass, inverted flying skills Tony... well, he got confused and — to use an offensive term often heard at the field — he Fritsed it on in!


The Cub is fixable, of course, but Tony says it's not a keeper...


Such fun! :hysterical:

Ouch Tony!!! I hope it was a good one!!!!

Yep it was. :crying: :crying: :crying: :embarrassed:

:huh: :( i hate to see that tony,trade good combat motor and some cash for whats left :o

We might have a deal. It is not that bad. :ouch:

Here's a video of Andrew and his teeny weeny Cub...

I doubt he'll be accepted by the North End Cub boys now... :no:
He joins a small group of Cub crashers, which includes Al, Mr. Bou and Tony. I think even Don is in that group...

Well, I know, I know, Osirus711 — you Fritsed it!
And, in an expert and extremely fast manner! :lol:

:hysterical:

Here's one of the 3D Hover Gaggles...
