    That looks like an amazing show, but I would not want to fly there. I can’t believe there are not more accidents with so much traffic in such a small area. Maybe I’ll drive up some time. Good save on that landing that looked crazy.

    You're a great ambassador for both aviation and 6B6, Michael! Every time I hear the "buzzing" of aerobatics overhead I know EXACTLY who's up there and it does my spirit good! Thanks for sharing and I'll watch this several times. God speed!

    'Twas a super fun trip. Thanks for being such a great "host" for our first trip to AirVenture!

    That kind-of-landing looked really, really tough! Congratulations on keeping the shiny side up!!
    Sounds like ATC was a real 🐻 !!

    A pucker moment on landing! I've been vacillating a while about building a Waiex B

    At 151, Race Pi belongs to a couple of my good friends.

    6:00 called an RV :) and when flying an RV12 I was called a Cirrus. Now I'm flying a high-wing and get called a Cessna. Sigh, RV and Cirrus were better.
    7:40 lot of crosswind!
    19:40 what was the wheel bearing problem? I assumed it was the cable brakes.

      I have hydraulic brakes, so no cable. There is a thin washer between the outside nut and the face of the outside of the bearing. The side load cupped the washer so it would grab sometimes. Replacing the washer fixed the problem.
