AirVenture: Day 0

By Ben Sclair · July 27, 2014 ·

The iconic brown arch is ready to go.

 

Menacing skies on Sunday afternoon steered north of Wittman. This SNJ4 in Warbird Parking stayed dry.

 

A Fairchild XNQ-1, owned by Don and Ann Pellegreno, in Warbird Parking on Sunday.

 

Old school inspiration. New school construction. It’s not hard to see the Beech Staggerwing influence in this Griffin Lionheart.

 

Mooney’s Acclaim is ready for Monday.

 

Red One.

    Nice pictures, Ben. Work keeps me away this year, I miss mainly the workshops and grassroots builders, especially scratch builders. They could eliminate the airshows as far as I’m concerned. Just watching the variety of planes come and go is a nice show.
