We were filling up memory cards left and right and are swimming in photos to edit and post. Here are a few nice shots. The theme this year was MUD. That area of Wisconsin received about ten inches of rain more than average for the month of July and most of it fell in the week before the show. Aircraft arrivals were outright denied for a few days and many campers with "big rigs" were sent to hard surfaced parking lots for the duration of the show.
Attendance was way down this year--something like 37 percent! And there was no really big innovation or public draw this year as well--probably due to economic conditions. All considered though, it was, as usual the greatest gathering of aviation enthusiasts in the world.
Enjoy the photos, and if you would like to see a lot more, browse around the photo albums on the
Civil Air Patrol forums at The CAPvine.
