MIE Fly-In/Drive/In
April 24, 2010; Muncie, Indiana
A wet, dreary looking T-6 on the wet, dreary ramp at Muncie. :) (Crummy cell phone photo warning).
|
When we arrived it was barely VFR, lightly raining, and the ramp was, as you can see, just a bit on the empty side!
|
Kaylee and her umbrella heading into Kacy J's to eat.
|
There was a Chinook there today (Kaylee in the back).
|
They were traveling to Washington State and just happened to stop in at MIE because of the weather. Good timing!
|
They let us walk through and check it out, which was really nice of them since the Blackhawks that were supposed to come today cancelled for the weather. (Wusses!!)
|
Kaylee by the Chinook cockpit.
|
The rain stops and folks come out to check out the T-6 a bit.
|
The Mooney-also from Kokomo-and the Chinook
|
Our Saratoga and Baron on the ramp alone.

Jon doing what he does well-helping kids check out the Six.
|
Answering questions...
|
Justin taking a photo of "Flat Stanley" for his nephew. (Actually, there was a second "Flat Stanley" there today who also got his photo taken on the T-6. Tis the time of year!)
|
Kaylee with her balsa wood airplane, our planes in the background.
|
You can see the wings in the middle of this photo at the top. She sends it off...
|
Steve and Kaylee. Awww!

Folks on the ramp watching the Chinook wind up
|
This thing really DOES beat the air into submission. Hard.
|
Watching the Chinook
|
Photos and video oh my!

It started sprinkling again so Kaylee huddled under her unopened umbrella. |

I couldn't decide which one to stick up-the one |
Or the close-up one of her face and hands. So I'll do both. ;)
