What a great time. Brodhead is wonderful. The people, the planes, thefield.....just incredible.The thingy up at Whitman Field the following week is pretty good too, butBRODHEAD!!!! WOW!!!It was a treat putting some faces with names this year. A lot of very nicepeople, these Pietenpol fanatics!Last year I ran around looking for a ride (and got 2!) and trying to take itall in......this year I slowed down and just hung out with the crowd.....itjust can't get any better....I had to leave before everyone took to the air Saturday evening (to pick upmy 3 oldest sons in Milwaukee, not a bad trade off....) but I was told thata lot of rides were given. That's great! I've had my ride and won't soonforget what a thrill the first one is. What a hoot to know how much someoneis enjoying their first ride!My highlights? Got to meet Gene R, Skip G, Michael C. and break bread withChuck G, Larry W and Bill R.Well, it just goes on and on.....Here are a few pictures.....Jim in Plano> To view Jim Markle's pictures at Shutterfly,> simply go to:>> >> (If you can't click on this link, try copying and pasting it> into your web browser.)>________________________________________________________________________________

Thanks for posting the great pictures Jim....I wasn't able to make it this year so the pics are much appreciated.....Congratulations on your Oshkosh award Larry And thanks for the positive input on brazing ...I put a LOT of effort into making my control parts as perfect as possible... to the plans... just before all this brazing stuff came up on the list. They will fly but the subject caused me alot of grief.
