New Stearman Visiting The Ames/AMW Airport

New Stearman Visiting The Ames/AMW Airport 07/08/2009

Annabelle (a bird dog) loves Pratt & Whitney

The Fourth of July may have been soggy, but the weekend was still a winner. The weather cleared off in time to watch the Ames fireworks from the perfect view-point. And, our friends, Dan and Diane Sokolowski, drove up for the weekend to build some time in their gorgeous, new Navy Stearman (check the TaleDragger page for a picture). Good friends, a new plane, and hours of flying... in a nutshell, it was a perfect weekend.
