SkyFest Saturday   10/19/02 


Jimmy Gibson and Jeff Cowan sent me these pictures. Jimmy provided the comments.. 

Jimbo,

Well, it was not the best day for Sky fest.   As you can see by the pictures it was rain and more rain.   I really feel bad for the staff and sponsors of Sky fest, they put on a great show for a good cause.   I am also proud of the members of the WTRC Club, the flyers put on almost as good show as the full scale guys.   (well maybe not as good as the Citabria and the Pitts) Tim Treneff, Jeff Layman, Danny Wheeler, Ricky Gateley, and Alex Treneff got to show their stuff.

Tim Treneff and Jeff Layman got to hold the poles and ribbon for the Citabria to do a low inverted pass to cut the ribbon.   (see citabra008.jpg) we got to see the Citabria, Extra 300, and the Pitts do their show.   It was a toss-up between the Citabria and the Pitts as to which was the best.

I think WTRC made a good impression on the staff of SkyFest, and we should thank everybody who went home with wet feet for coming out and helping.

Later

Jimmy

P.S.   EVERYBODY NEEDS TO ASK RICKY GATELY (AKA.."PORKY") ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCE WITH THE NATIONAL GUARD BLACKHAWK HELICOPTER,  BETTER YET ASK JEFF LAYMAN IF YOU CAN GET HIM TO QUIT LAUGHING LONG ENOUGH.
