Just home from a big week in the desert. So many people to thank. Only took a few photos myself but have been grabbing photos off the web for my own archives.

Over 400 planes and a thousand people. 1 ground loop on the weekend resulting in a gear failure on an Avid. Draco beats out Trent Palmer in the finals by a hair and that's a wrap. Time for cleaning and prep for HSF 2019 and the 10 year celebration!

Great collection of photos! I see Trent has his "Cub Killer" together. Looking forward to his segment on the assembly of that one.

Looks like a great time was had by all. One day I'll get out there.

Here’s a few of my photos, had a great time as always!

Some incredible races!

What great photos. Thank you!

Great aerial shot of the STOL Drags. I can't tell if it from a drone or a manned aircraft, but it sure looks good. I wish I could have added 1 more plane to the "ramp", but was nursing my wife and her broken leg. The things she'll do to keep me home...

Thanks for the great shots. On my list to make it down there next year.

The long shadows is an amazing photograph.

How are those airplane flying without the props moving?

Great photos! I had fun at the HSF this year. Look forward to the next.

I couldn't stay all through the event, but it was great seeing Kevin and so many others that are amazing. I was lucky to get some big tires before the event and get some landings in with the new bigger tires and amazing prop clearance ( especially compared to the Mooney!). It's always great meeting new aviation enthusiasts.

Done flying for the day!

Thanks for an awesome picture Rob!


Fort Bidwell (A28 (?)) Has a great place to eat in town. Opens at 9Am! I had the burger with pulled pork, it was awesome. About a 1/2 walk.



The airplane sits very different than it used to. I had at least a few wheel barrow landings initially. So happy that I upgraded and thanks to some amazing BCP members for the help!

Another awesome HSF.

HUGE PROPS to Kevin for organising this, super smooth fun despite the size. I would not keep going if it wasn't for his emphasis on safety.

I'm more of a snapshot guy, but it is so spectacular that some of them look good.

Draco is every bit as impressive as I had imagined. Mike is really doing something amazing and has skills.



The older of these two is still useful.



170s Rock! And if you lean forward they accelerate faster Rod.
