Sept 11, 2005: Hawke field Fly-out

Well, we had a ball at the Hawke field Fly-out today. The place is easy to get to from Kingston with the roast corn and hamburgers alone being worth the effort.  And if that wasn't enough, the people were really friendly and the display aircraft were incredible.  People were calling it a mini Oshkosh. 

The AirSport people were showing off their nice suite of Tecnam airplanes, the RAA folks were providing construction tips for home builders and the detailing in  some of the ultralight aircraft was just a joy to see in terms of workmanship.

Four airplanes from our Kingston Club flew out, a nice couple in their C172 from Westport were there, as were a number of people from the Picton Club too.
