A Few Photos From The Sentimental Journey Fly-In

Here are a few photos from the 2013 Sentimental Journey Fly-In.
There are impressive rows upon rows of Piper planes as well as other makes of light aircraft at the fly-in in Lock Haven Pa.

   What fun it is to walk the rows of planes and look over the variety of models present at the fly-in.
Even more fun is watching all the flight action.  Good flying weather at Lock Haven's Sentimental Journey Fly-in results in a very busy airfield.

I like to stand at the flightline and watch the Piper Cubs come in for a landing.

   Another fun part of attending the fly-in is the chance to chat with pilots from all over the country.  Some of the pilots gladly explain unique details about their airplanes

Some of the pilots are great storytellers. For example, this pilot told my boys how he discovered his Piper Super Cub looks exactly like the Hobbyzone Mini Super Cub RTF ... it even has the same number.

Notice the tent?  There are alot of tents set up under the wings of the airplanes on the field.
    Wednesday through Saturday during the Lock Haven fly-in our skies are filled with the hum of airplanes and the glint of the sun reflecting off the wings.  Many of the planes are Piper Cubs that have made the trip home to where they were manufactured... right here in Lock Haven.

Somehow, this all seems like the way it should be in Lock Haven, doesn't it?
