For All Of You Hot Air People

[Marauder]

This weekend New Garden airport will be hosting the Chester County Balloon Festival. It will include in addition to the balloon flights, an EAA pancake fly-in breakfast on Saturday, plane rides (want to ride in a PT-19?), fireworks, participating vendors and other activities.

If any of you do meander over this way, let me know. Always up to meet fellow MooneySpacers. The airport will be closed from 5 pm until 10 pm each evening (Friday through Sunday night) and from 5 am to 7 am on Saturday and Sunday. Otherwise, the airport is open.

Tell them Marauder sent you and they will double your ticket price!

Well, counselor, if the description fits... 

 

Actually, I think the description fits most pilots as well.

Best one was from a friend of mine. I did his IPC yesterday and in light of the other "hot air" (it hit about 104°F) he asked, Tell me - did you become a CFII for the glory, the big bucks, or to stay low and fly approaches in 100 degree weather and associated turbulence?"

 

Since it turned out the air was smooth as silk, I had to go with the big bucks.

Wish you could all make it... Day 1

Poor Marauder didn't bring his women to the event so they had to tether to his truck!

Pretty cool. Got to talk a lot to the owner/pilot who tethered to my truck. Seems some of thes balloons are more expensive than our Mooneys!

That's all she wrote for today! Nice fireworks before the storm.

But we did get some fireworks in... Before the real fireworks showed up.
