The Blakesburg fly-in is still on for 2020. Is anyone planning on going? As of now, I am planning on attending Thursday - Saturday.

What a great picture book of airplanes! They all sure have that little wheel on the correct end of the airplane! Nothing better than what this represents.

Probably the only event this year that's still "on". I can't make it, but do send photo's, they always get some really cool old airplanes that show up. I always loved the "night life party there".........where you can get a drink at the pub and wander around some of the coolest Golden Age airplanes flying.
