  • Rare Bear Qualifying Pics

    No I don't have the ability to post photos from Stead. I took the afternoon off.

    Hmmm. The photos seem to be posted in reverse order. They go from engine start on the right to shut down on the left.

        Thanks for the images It's great to read from afar that the BearCrew got him airborne, and very successfully at that. Well done!

          Now that we can sigh with relief and say, "it flies!" I will remark that she's wearing one darn fine paintjob.

                I know she flies better with the 4-blader but a big shiny 3-blader would sure look purdy on her. Thanks for the great pics!

                  If those really are reverse order, at thats the Bear, sitting on the ramp AFTER qualifing, and she's not soaked in oil.....

                  I'm stunned.

                  Great job in the cave guys.....

                    Thanks Ig! The paint is certainly better than last year's, but it's still growing on me. Maybe in person and when the concept drawing checkerboard goes on the cowl...

                        I was out along the fencline for the Bear's Qualifying.. She looked like she was just cruizin'...

                        I think Penney pushed the stick up a little on the VOS, but smooth, quite, and highly skilled piloting!

                          Great job Bear Cavers! Great to see the Bear in the Air! But the paint scheme still needs help.

                          GO BEAR! GO BEAR DRIVER!!!

                            Qualified at 468 and change, and didn't sound like she was even breaking a sweat. Not bad for having rebuilt the prop last night!
