Tuesday rolled around and Corey needed to be at Replica Fighters Headquarters early to man the information desk to answer questions for potential members to the club.I stayed at the hotel for some down time because of becoming ill as we prepared to leave home on Sunday. I did get out of the hotel when Corey picked me up to come back to attend the movie Dunkirk with him. The evening air made for a pleasant event at the Airbus Theater as it became cool and crisp sitting in the open air.
Later in the Day it was time to go see some jets on static display…
Corey and I spent a little while walking through the planes but one caught my attention immediately!
Maybe you recognize it already!
One of my favorite Corporate Jets hailing from Iowa , the Millennium Phenom once again bringing to the viewers delight the Star Wars Theme of the 1970’s.
If you ever get to stand beside the plane like I've done on a couple different occasions take note of all the nuances incorporated in the design. An absolutely fabulous paint job!
Thanks to Corey for catching this moment for me while we were out and about.
The
clouds began building over the crowds milling about AirVenture late Wednesday
afternoon. The radar didn’t indicate precipitation but as a student of Mother
Nature I insisted we needed to make our last calls for the day and head off to
our hotel for the night. I so appreciated Corey’s patience with my introverted
character in such an extroverted setting. After returning to our lodging a
torrential downburst exploded outside confirming my intuition about developing
rain.
Thursday took us in a totally different direction than the last three days. Please come back and see where our Journey took us next.
Have a great day!
