That was real good watching. Why only two more years of the Fly Inn? Will it happen elsewhere after?

I think Mr. Brodak committed to keep doing four more times two years ago. So it's down to two more. As I heard it the two remaining years is a minimum. He might decide to continue. It's sure been great so far.

Yes, I have watched this video several times now. So many people that I did not get to meet, but was glad to meet the ones I did and see the ones I knew already. Also it was told to me that there are only going to be two more Brodak Fly Ins. Thanks for the videos.

The 'header' photo, before starting the video: could that possibly be the remains of Tom Dean's Nats-winning (mid '50s)Aeronca Crop Duster?

I posted some comments in the Scale section. That Aeronca set the standard back then...was untouchable until someone outpointed him with a B-36 having six K&Bs plus four Jetex 150s (many bonus points). Glad to know it still exists - or at least pieces and parts of it. It's a work of art.
