2005 Chili-Dog Fun Fly

These are pictures and movies clips from the 2005 Chili-Dog Fun Fly event, held on October 15, 2005. In the past, this event has been plagued with poor weather, either cold and rainy, or windy. Not this time! Couldn't have asked for a nicer day. This helped boost the attendance past a club-field record... 51 registered pilots, around 100 total, and more than 100 airplanes of every type at some point during the day. We were competing with a giant-scale event in Oklahoma, and the Mizzou Tigers homecoming game, or the turnout would have been even bigger. Billy Neal brought his awesome chili and club members brought an assortment of side dishes. Lots of good flying and camaraderie today!

Here is a link to the Brochure we produced for this event.

MOVIE CLIPS

(These movies were produced using Arcsoft's Video Impression 2. The 384Kbps size may run better on slower computers, and are quite a bit smaller than the 760Kbs versions without loosing much quality. Some of the movies are also available in 640x480 resolution (1500kbs), when the original was taken in that size on the Minolta Z3 digital camera. I usually recommend right-clicking on the link, choose save to disk, and play the video ouside the browser.)
