FUZ-moto-VII Grand-Canyon, Arizona, Thu May 3, 2012
After spending the evening visiting with Joe's family, in the morning, I flew up to Stellar Airpark (L19).
The departure was pretty interesting as I got held on the ground for quite a while waiting for F16's doing pattern practice, touch-and-goes.
Meanwhile, Matt was driving from San Diego on his Ninja ZX-14. We picked up Rich and Ana from Phoenix and then went to pick up the bikes.
We stayed the night at Richie's house in Mountain Park.

My takeoff was delayed while I waited for all these F16's to get out of my way :)

And, while I wait to cross the runway, several F16's do touch and goes.
