Got to thinking maybe the L-1011 wasn't big enough so....

.... decided to add an even bigger plane to the collection and here he is coming in a few hours ago.  KIDDING....JUST KIDDING!  This C-17 is "ours" only to the extent that we are all taxpayers!  See video here and more photos here.

We rocked around our props!

Twenty-four hours ago our first Rock Around the Props was in progress!  The Benders were every bit as good as we'd heard they were and then some!  Connie showed off her #3 and #2 engines during the first band intermission.  #3 even did a little bit of the "good fire" which you can see (and lots, lots more) in Marty Williams' Speed of Flight photos.  At the 10:00 pm break we all headed to the ramp again where we had a perfect view of the first night of the Riverfest fireworks (also in Marty's photos).  Despite a pretty strong breeze out of the south limiting the amount the hangar doors could be open and very high humidity, the fun level was even higher.  Looks like Rock Around the Props may be on our calendar to stay! See Connie's engine run here and more photos here.

Connie's Busy Day

Friday was a busy day for Connie between posing for cameras with classic cars and then 8 hours later having #3 engine run.  See photos by clicking here and video by clicking here.  She's looking good to run #2 and #3 tonight on an intermission during the dance.  Tickets will be available at the door, if you have not already made reservations. John Novak ready at the fire bottle while Don Browett talks with the cockpit crew as #3 starts.  Photo by Marty Williams, Speed of Flight
