2019 Milaca Sodbusters STOL / 18Y

Here are some pics from the small camera of the 2019 Milaca Sodbusters STOL event. Held at 18Y last Saturday. Milaca, MN

It was 89-90F deg and HUMID! Very light "breeze" at 2-3 mph out of the South.

Holy Moly, Bat Guy! The guy in the ninth photo looks suspiciously like a certain well known Alaskan Cessna 170 owner!

Sorry I missed it. But, as always, Brads photos are awesome!

Great pictures Brad. Looks like a well run and organized STOL comp. I have family in the area and hope to attend next year.

Awesome pictures Brad! Had a great time, although the heat and humidity was a factor. Great display of airmanship by all competitors with a couple of 'hairy' moments. Can hardly wait for next year!

Ha thanks whee, my best score was 418ft. It was neat to see more people with their family at this flyin than most, except for Oshkosh. The guy with the 182 even had his kids in the plane for the competition.

Great turnout and a perfect weather day for this.
It was a big surprise to see this much interest and turnout.
We are in the neighborhood and sure to be there next year.
It reminded me of our 2 Caveman Ranch fly in visits and the competition.
Happy Times, Thanks for all who made this happen.
