The Lakeland Follies '03--A Gallery of the Good, Bad and Airworthy (Part 3)

Part Three of a Three Part Feature by ANN PhotoJournalist Bob Kaputa

The Aero-News Network team (Jim, Tim, Pete, John, Juan, and Bob) had a great time bringing you our coverage of Sun 'n Fun 2003 (despite a number of obstacles). The warm Florida sun and the equally warm groups of people that gathered in Lakeland for this year's event made for a fairly pleasant week of sun, fun, airplanes, and friends--old and new.

As a part of our wrap-up, we'd like to share some of the things we saw as we wandered the grounds, gathering the news last week.

After all that looking, it would be time to wander over to the Forums and Workshops, where we could get down and dirty with some real hands-on training. And, you can't start learning too soon...



The Afternoon airshow is always popular…
and a nice way to wind up the day. 


We hope you enjoyed this little peek over our shoulder as we visited this year's Sun 'n Fun as much as we enjoyed bringing it to you.
