Yes, pics please!
I'm really bummed about missing the Hoosier Dawn Patrol (again!) this year. It's a fun event. Lots of cool R/C model WW1 planes, and lots of even cooler people.
Hopefully someone will post some photos of the event so we can all see what we're missing.
Maybe next year...

Lloyd, I'll give it go with some video I shot Saturday. It's in 14 short parts. (I'm still figuring out my editing software.) Hopefully the first will lead to the other 13. The 13th clip contains an exciting landing.
Once I sort things out, I'll post one single video. Oh, and I promise to star using a tri-pod!

Gee, Frank. I was looking for you, and I didn't find you anywhere.

Bruno Stachel,
Thanks, I watched all the clips and no.13 showing a new style of delivering system of some kind of wheel device to the enemy.

Jan, I was looking for your Fokker on the flight line. Sorry I missed you. I didn't get to stay very long. But the short stay was worth seeing these beautiful planes.
Lloyd, I think the next step is to light the tires - sort of like the flaming rollers used against the Romans in Spartacus.
See here at 4:00 mins:

Here are a few pictures from HDP. Unfortunately, do to the size constraints on photos that can be posted, they're not very big or clear.
You can tell from the ballooning of the tents and the straight out flags that there was a pretty stiff crosswind. It was steady, however, and most planes got flown many times. The weather was also chilly, in contrast to last year when it was in the 90's! A good time was had by all!
