Again beautiful weather. CAVU. Temp mild.
Today the T-28s did their thing so we sat and watched. The RV guys are really putting on some good formations. a Big diamond made up of 36 aircraft! Its easy since all the guys are flying a diamond in flights with the diamonds stacked into a very big one.
We had our Forum today (all the other WBs have their tomorrow). Our two subjects were safety and legal. We had two first person accounts on two fatal accidents. A stall spin and mid-air. Both speakers were eloquent in their descriptions of and the ramifications of these accidents.
The Legal part had a practicing lawyer, tell us just about how far you can go without reporting the FAA of an incident / accident.
The BBQ went OK. Despite my fear of not having enough food, we fed some 50 people. At the last minute I had guys coming out of the woodwork, saying they were members (they were not). We drink ALL the beer. There was a little food left over. Very little.
Tomorrow is another day off. FAST meeting and FAST Check pilot meeting in the morning. Birthday party in the evening. FOOD FOOD FOOD BEER BEER etc etc. But than there is good fellowship. Lots of that too.
