Pattern memories

Wow how time flys.  In 2012 I made a job change which impacted my available time to participate in pattern events.  I am hopeful to find time in the upcoming 2018 season.  This winter I will be busy preparing aircraft or next season.

In the mean-time I've been reminiscing over past photos of pattern planes and events.  Here are a few of my favorites.
