Silver Springs, Nevada, Flyin' 2006
Silver Springs, Nevada, fly-in is an annual event that brings in lots of vendors and aircraft.  Brent and I flew down for the day, had lunch, and looked at the planes and exhibits.  This is Brent standing in front of a warplane.  I'm not sure if it is Chinese or Japanese. 
Another plane that I have no clue to what it is.  All I know is that was big.  The radial engines on these baby's are enormous.  I'm sure it takes more than a gallon of fuel just to taxi to the runway.
I believe this is a Europa aircraft.  It was really clean throughout.
Possibly a Stinson.  Another clean plane. I'm updating these pictures from over a year ago, so my memory and knowledge of aircraft are both somewhat limited. 
This aircraft is used for search and rescue and it floats on the water or lands on the runway.  The sheriff standing next to the plane is the owner and he stated he flies it all over the place.  Pretty cool!
This antique Harley is pretty neat.  I'd love to have something like this to put around on. 
When I was a kid, my dad owned an older Willey's jeep like this one. He had long since replaced the four-cylinder engine with a Chevrolet 283 cubic inch V8.  There wasn't much room under the hood, but it sure had a lot of power.  When I looked under this jeeps hood I can't believe we actually made the V8 fit. 

We had a good time at the Silver Springs flyin'.
