Pictures of the Day: Learning from a Master
William Vergonet submitted these photos and a note: “Learning all about the art of antique aircraft repair from one of the greatest in the business, Jerry Stadtmiller of Bipe Inc. and an FAA Master Mechanic IA/AP.

Picture of the Day: Fly-In at I61
Bob Hayes submitted this photo and note: “A beautiful spring morning at Hagerstown Airport (I61) in Indiana, on our well-maintained, 4,000-foot grass strip. Lots of pilots came out after being cooped up all winter. We had more than 60 planes. This event takes place the second Saturday of every month all summer long, with camping on the field.”
Picture of the Day: Morning coffee flight
Rusty Eichorn submitted this photo and note: “I love to jump in my Super Cub on Aerocet floats and start my day out of the Northbound Seaplane Base (5MN6) in Minnesota with a banana and a cup of coffee and watch our town and lake residents start their day from the air. It’s fun to listen to air traffic around Northern Minnesota of those who are doing the same.”
Picture of the Day: Never gets old
Christian Sanchez submitted this photo and note: “Took my 1969 Cessna 150 up for a short evening flight — something I don’t get to enjoy nearly enough. Watching the sunset from 3,000 feet above Central Texas is nothing short of magic. It’s one of those simple rewards of flying that never gets old.”
