Re: Wingman Photos

More WINGMAN photos - we flew over VALLEY FORGE and the WASHINGTON CROSSING of the Delaware...good to keep a tight formation around so much Class B, C and D airspace up here in the congested, contested and crowded NE region of the USA!

We asked for an recieved a special Class D clearance to orbit the area where GEN George Washington led the patriots across the Delaware River and won a tremendous victory during the Revolutionary War - very interesting to see it from the air. ADSB, aka the "fish finder" helps keep the formation in line!

Where Washington wintered at "Valley Forge, PA"...and the nearby site where he "Crossed the Delaware" circa the American Revolution...all good, just had to fly under some Class B, and in some Class D to do it...well worth it.

More WINGMAN photos using iFly and ADSB IN and OUT with the TAILBEACON....this time to Frederick for breakfast - taking a FIVE SHIP from various airports and doing aerial rejoins to a formation landing there...thanks iFly! Doing aerial rejoins now is MUCH easier and safer...we can see the rejoining aircraft much further out and put him on a heading or orbit that will align with the formation travelling at over 100 mph.

New Year's Day Fly-In!

Many iFly GPS subscribers and many Sky and Tail Beacon customers!

We had 33 planes and 56 crew show up for a New Year's Day Fly-In at Smoketown, PA! Great time. iFly has a lot of fans in this part of the country!
