Quite impressive!

I loved the photos! Thanks for posting them.
Really nice planes, not sure how many pilots were in the event.
But judging by the planes divided by 2 it was quite a few.

no problem  8)

there was 10 pilots in tier 1 and 8 more in tier 2 of F3A. that and another 3-4 in Masters and Sportsmans class (formerly know as Novice) so it was quite a busy schedule to fit in each day but thankfully we got good weather on both days  :)
