Late Summer at MRFA

The die-hard fliers have been out at MRFA getting flight time in before the big chill of Fall hits. Check out some of the birds that have been buzzing around the field:

Dick's Supersportster laying down a smoke trail.

Rob's Aircruiser 25- one fast little ol' bugger!

And David...well...he put his Edge 540 down just a wee bit from the runway. Just a tad!

Come on out and join the fun before the days are short and the winds are cold and wet!
