2021 AMA Vintage Days BBQ

[Oldewing]

Got yours Bob. And yes to parts table, spot 309, same as before. And yes the BBQ is Thursday night.



I am sitting at Eldora Speedway in my RV watching the rain ..................good thing the beer is cold.

Would have been a real bummer if the beer were warm.

Looks like I'm not coming down until Sunday. Normally I'm a Saturday guy, but Doc (a WWII B-29 bomber, one one of only two still flying) is flying into Kalamazoo that weekend, and on a whim I decided to book a flight. So if I miss anyone, know that it is only for the COOLEST of reasons.

Looks like the BBQ is pretty thin this year.


But to the 3 die hards that are coming, we might just to the corner and have Mexican food instead.

I fully understand buddy,

I have had the pleasure of these fine aircraft thru my job at the Aerodrome all these years..

Oooo, she's a beaut. Yankee Lady is the B-17 closest to me, out of Willow Run, so I see her fly overhead every couple years, with the occasional stop at our local county airport then and again. Still, really hard to beat a B-29 Superfortress, though....

Keeping things on topic, though, does anyone know how the show usually is on Sunday? Is it still pretty busy, or is it like the vintage show in Wauseon Ohio, where everyone is essentially just packing up?

From what I understand vendors are not supposed to leave until noon Sunday. So that keeps them there for awhile at least.

Some real bargains Sunday ...

Yeah, if you're not looking for anything specific that is the best day for deals.

[Lucien Harpress]

Sweet. I'll have to keep an eye out for some Trail 90 parts. Seems that blowing smoke out the exhaust is the LEAST of my problems....

(Also, looks like I won't be bringing MY 90.)

How did the BBQ go? I hope you take pics today at the swap and tomorrow also! Since we can't be there we have to live vicariously through you!!!!!! Thanks!

[Rat]

I did hoist a beer in honour of the occasion ... REALLY hate to miss it.

Odds look much better for the Eastern Run in September ...

Sad not to be there. first one I have missed in a long time. Another 10 days and she get her XRay and maybe I get a bit of freedom.

Greg said I think 4 at the BBG. Swap meet was pretty good. Great weather today.
