It was a very warm August day at the SCRC Flying Field for the 2005 SCRC Airshow!  The final preparations started the day before the show early on the morning of August 13th.  Some photos of the spectator fence raising follow.

Off to a good start	All hands are working	Don't forget the East end	Nearly done now
And when the work was done, the coffee and doughnuts were enjoyed by all while reminiscing

And now, the day of the show

One of the most important features of the Airshow is keeping the spectators aware of the aircraft that are currently in the air.  The job of keeping the flying moving smoothly was coordinated between the announcer, Sam Stitzer, and Al Jones.  Together, they provided a very smooth running and well paced show for the spectators.

Roy Long caught this action photo of Sam Stitzer announcing the flight activities during the Airshow.  Sam always does a fine job of keeping the spectators informed during the flying portion of the activities.  Click here to see many more of Roy Long's Airshow photos
