Reporting "Live" from Simsbury airport NW of Hartford, this years EAA fly-in was a fantastic event. As its my first time visiting this eclectic little field, I felt Ive been missing something special for years right in my own back yard! It was a great day to bask in the late Summer sun and inform a few people about our little museum located in Stratford. The link is: www.simsburyairport.com/flyin.php
(Great shot of me just as we were setting up. This is after a few hours of sleep and one large cup of coffee.)
And on to a few photos of some of the more exciting aircraft there...
Of course there were far more aircraft there than these few measly pictures, but a few more pics can be found here: http://s190.photobucket.com/albums/z141/Warbird-Kid/Simsbury%20Flyin/
All in all I wish we could have more of these types of events in our small but exciting state. It just seems that the usual degree of enthusiasm towards flying and especially airports is luke-warm at best. But its shows like this that must be sought out by airplane enthusiasts. A definite attraction for any wing nut!
