2006 Quad City Airshow

On Sunday, June 4th we attended the Quad City Airshow in Davenport, IA.   This show has become a real favorite of ours, and we haven't missed flying into one for several years. 

This year we met our good friends Mike & Deanna Sullivan, who drove in for the day. Their kids played with our kids, the weather was perfect, and we all had a great time!

(Be patient with the videos -- they're gigantohumongous files...)
