expect to be interviewed by BUD with the EAA mag. fri morn. before i could get
tied down & regestered. He was very nice& said he knew ken way back then.

the pilot breafing for the air to air photo shoot. fiannly i get to go to
register the plane for judging& pay for admittance& then get to finally hit the
potty. I was floatin,,By then i was ready for lunch. after lunch, it was off to
the pilot breafing filling out paper work&going thru with 10 or so others
fixin up time slots & explaining the in's & out's of the formation flyin to get
the shots they need. almost 2 hrs later i get out, only enough time to see
parts mart a little( our eaa chapter runs it) & some food for supper& off i go
to
the flight line lookin for a gas truck so i can fuel up & meet the photo plane
for take off @ 5:45. So off we go into the wild blue yander to 8500 ft. &
start the close& i mean close formation flyin & snappin lots of shots,,about 20
