On the first weekend of October this year, the skies cleared, the wind let up and the TravelAirs descended into Flabob.  We were happy to host the 2009 TARA reunion and by the time the weekend was over, we had 7 biplanes on hand and 1 rare TravelAir 6000 monoplane.  There was a lot of catching up with old friends, plenty of flying, a couple of fun evenings with dinners, movies, some beer drinking and Jerry’s famous auction.  There were a lot of stories told and some of them were even true!  By Sunday afternoon everyone had headed for home, inspired to get their airplanes finished in time for next year’s reunion. Thanks to everyone who participated, especially John Lyon for his great presentation, Bruce McElhoe for arriving early and helping to get everything set up, Sheila for the flower arrangements and Irene and the Flabob Cafe staff for their hard work.
