Wow, what an experience! I got invited by the Sparta airport to come out to 8D4, and check out the pancake breakfast flyout! Take a look at some of my favorite shots, as close as 10’ from an active runway!
Cessna 172 operated by West Michigan Aviation Academy (@Cooper_Marcukaitis), taxis out to RWY 25, headed to do some patterns! Fun fact, I was on my way to drop my application off for that school, but I told mother to turn around half way there, and I’m glad I did TBH.
United States Army’s Bell UH-1 Iroquois comes in to land over all the arrived traffic!
YOOOO! Whassup Tango! I saw this plane at LEAST 20 times, it’s a Beechcraft Bonanza btw
Sweet Maule M5, with amphibious floats on it, taxis out for departure!
Not my cleanest shot, but the pilot of this Van’s Aircraft RV-4, Flight of 3, gives me the 🤙🏻 sign as he rotates away!
Awe 💚 you too 🥺, Van’s Aircraft RV-4, Flight of 3, leaves Sparta.
Aeronca L-3 Grasshopper lifts off from RWY 25 off for the vast sky.
Coming in at my 3rd favorite shot here, a lellow Boeing-Spearman Model 75, comes in for a quick bite to eat!
My 2nd favorite shot here, another Boeing-Spearman Model 75, lifts off, but, with a smoke trail. So. Frickin. Cool
Now, this is the reason why aviation is so awesome, the pilot of this Gyrocopter gives us 3 spotters a wave as he heads in for the pancake breakfast!
