Picture of the Day: Winter maintenance
John Schmidt submitted this photo and note: “Commemorative Air Force members Ron Bombeck, crew chief Dan Bombeck, and pilot Jeff Knutson inspect the Pratt and Whitney R-985 on the nose of the Minnesota Wing’s Oshkosh-award-winning BT-13 in the hangar at South St. Paul Airport (KSGS). Winter maintenance has begun, and it’s an excellent time to see the warbirds, with inspection panels off, as crews of volunteers prepare the airplanes for another air show season.”
Pictures of the Day: SeaReys fly around Devil’s Island
Hal Roberts submitted these photos and note: “A long anticipated trip finally happened with weather cooperating. Tom Platner with wife Janet and Wes Tanaka and I and my wife Joan had hoped to fly to Madeline Island in Wisconsin for a weekend stay early September 2023. To land on Lake Superior water requires an unusually low wind day but we were lucky! After landing at the Beach Club beach in La Pointe on Madeline Island we had lunch then took off for a tour around the Apostle Islands. One of the most picturesque of the Apostles is Devil’s Island with a lighthouse that looks like a rocket ship. Flying formation with three SeaReys around the Apostles was surrealistic. Credit my wife Joan Angelis with this amazing shot out the right seat of Wes in the foreground and Tom and Janet in the background.

Picture of the Day: Bucket list done
David Morris submitted this photo and note: “At age 16 I flew with my older brother, who was a CFI for gliders. He flew out of El Mirage Field (99CL) in California’s Mohave Desert. At age 80 I made plans to fly again, one more time. I located a great group of people at the Piedmont Soaring Society in Farmington, North Carolina. We were towed to 3,000 feet and were able to climb to 5,800 feet. We flew for 45 minutes. We could have done more, but others were waiting for a ride. It was all I remembered. Thanks to Ed White, my pilot who took this photo, and Bob Hull, another member of the club.”
