Frederick



Yesterday team #29 completed the aircraft inspection process, handed in the keys and sighed in relief. Later in the morning we enjoyed a terrific walking tour in downtown Frederick with Chris Smith. In the afternoon we participated in a youth aviation event.  Seeing the young girls enthralled with all things aviation is delightful. In the evening the festivities continued at the minor league ballpark. The hometeam- The Lynchburg team defeated the hometown Keys. Prior to the start of the game there was recognition of the heritage of the Air Race Classic and a dramatic flyover. And - A ukulele band provided the national anthem.

Here are a couple of photos of the plane upon arrival and parked out on the field in Frederick. Frank and Will so kindly helped with the tie downs in the hard crumbly ground.
