[ScanIndiana] La Porte Parade flyover

[Andrew Baugh]

The past flyovers have been excellent.  This year's
really "tanked".  Actually, the entire parade this
year "tanked".  Normally, the Jaycees use the amateur
radio club for communications.  This year, they had
three amateurs there, just in case their cell phones
failed.  Not to mention, just before the parade
started, the county fire decided to do the Sunday test
for all fire pagers.  If you were right at the start
when it went off, you were pretty much deaf.  I was
standing about 10-15 feet away from the engines when
they toned, and afterwards, I just heard those tones. 
Sorry to complain.  Maybe next year will be better. 
One upside to the fly-over, though.  Since they were
off to the side of Lincolnway, they went directly over
my house.  Not something I was expecting.
