Ok, who is here? The official list of those signed up was very encouraging. I
had seen around 110 or more on the GML page before the show. The list now
shows 93. After reading the list in August I was able to reduce it from those
I knew could not attend. I think my pre-show list had 107.
Of the 107, how many would make it? There would be some last minute scheduling
problems for a few, last minute mechanicals and some plan changing. It is not easy
to own, maintain and fly a warbird. Many things can come up and keep you on the
ground. Three California guys had major engine problems come up right before
the show (Lady Alice, Kimberly Kaye, Grim Reaper), two of them only two weeks
before the show. Two of the three require complete engine changes,
the third is heads and banks.
Jim Beasley also planned on bringing two of his three, but Bald Eagle did not
make it because of an engine change. Beasley's "Frenesi" has been in restoration. For
the west coast owners, two days of travel each way is needed (also
the bucks for fuel and accommodations). The long trip from the west coast did
keep a few in their hangars just like in April of 1999.
