Public Welcome Fly Day June 14 2003

The event took place at the dry lake bed of Quichipa Lake just west of town. The day turned out to be a very good day to hold an event. The wind stayed under control and the people who stopped by all had a good time. The day brought out between 80 to 100 spectators and 30 to 35 of them got a chance to take the sticks of one of the trainer airplanes that were available.
Dennis Sherwood going over the particulars with Jerry Schott before putting him on the controls of his Kadet.
	Don Thomas helps a young potential future pilot as other spectators look on. Don was a real trooper spending over 4 hours on the controls of a trainer allowing as many who wanted try their hand flying a model airplane.
Don Blanchard showing off one of his many models and giving a quick overview of the inner workings.
	Another club pilot, (Kelly Dangerfield shown here), answering a few questions posed by one of many young ladies who came to observe and even give it a try.
Another look at the flight line as both club members and spectators look on as the event progressed.
	A good look at Dennis Sherwood readying his 230 Extra to give a demonstration of what a top pilot can do with enough training and practice and a good, solid aircraft.
As the flying was winding down, Don Thomas makes himself available to answer as many questions as he can posed by those who both participated or were just curious.
