A couple weeks ago the family accompanied me to my hometown, Olean, NY, so we could cheer on our friend Brady who competed in an aerobatic competition about 15 miles from my parents' house. Brady, who's got dibs to captain Stiff Willi One should I ever be lucky enough to rival Tabasco, finished second in his competition. Personally I think he got hosed, but I could barely fly in a two-seat plane without wetting my pants, much less judge the pilot. So what do I know?
All in all we had a great time, and our friends Rico and Melissa even drove down from Rochester to hang out with us the first night. Here are some nice photos of Brady's practice session, courtesy of Melissa.
