[ScanIndiana] La Porte Parade flyover

[Duane Mantick]

Maybe the US grand Prix had the 181st out of
Terre Haute?  :-)  :-)

As an aside, I went to the Terre Haute airshow a year
or two back and did not see any of the 181st aircraft
fly the show, at least not while I was there.  This
coming weekend is the TH show again, wonder if they
will this year?  Seems a little odd........not flying
at your own local show?
