PPG National Convention - Polk City, Florida...
Thanks to Greg Hanneman again for stepping up and coming down all the way from Oregon to help with filming the movie. We couldn't have done it without him.

The National event was awesome. We got about 10 hours worth of video. The weather was great for the most part, I got in six flights, and on Saturday morning I broke my personal altitude record. It is now 4300 feet. I got in about a 25 minute flight from that height without the motor. Very peaceful.

We met a lot of good people from all over the country and got some good interviews from pilots both male and female.

The event was held at Kermit Weeks' Fantasy of Flight museum facility. It is really an incredible place. When in Florida it is a place not to miss. I'll be posting some video soon. Stay tuned...
