My Wife and I, accompanied by my 7 year old niece and 13 year old brother in law attended the 25th annual Reklaw Fly-in-Camp out in Reklaw, Texas.
We located an appropriate spot in the pasture of the Flying M Ranch and pitched our tent to stay for a few days.
Here are some photos of the more than 500 aircraft that flew in for the camp out.
Enjoy!
1940 Waco Bi-Plane
Well Restored and cared for by a husband and wife team.
lots of Piper J3 Cubs always show up for the festivities.
Classic Panel... The fuel tank can be seen underneath the panel forward of the stick. The little stim (barely visible by sunlight) extending vertically from the top of the panel is the fuel guage (it floats on the fuel, so the stem gets shorter and shorter as you run lower on fuel)
Antanov AN-2
Me taking a break in some cool shade with a cold beer.
Northwest parking... by sunset the field had only about 10 parking spaces remaining.
The runway... lined on left and right by rows of campers and spectators.
some interesting cowl plugs!
