Thanks for the update, Dan. WX here in Lakeland great, but a stubborn front just north is messing up arrivals here.

We have arrived at KLAL, next to last aircraft to land tonight 4/6. We have had lots of sun, more cross wind and gusty landings, now ready for some fun.

Five T-18s in the sunny, but windy Bahamas. Great rum punch and conch. Off to see the swimming pigs tomorrow. Hopefully pictures to follow.

I think Bruce and Diane Finney just set a long distance record from Seattle to the Bahamas for a Thorp Gathering. I hope they make it to KSEZ nxt week. That would be REALLY impressive.

Well, thanks to Facebook, I have now seen pigs swim during the Bahama T-18 Gathering. It may be difficult to top the swimming pigs in Sedona......
