This "amateur built" HATZ CB1 double winger flew in from Keller, Texas for the annual Will Rogers Memorial Fly-in. He's coming in for a landing on the grass landing strip at the Will Rogers Dog Iron Ranch near Oologah, Oklahoma. The ranch's historical group sponsors a fly-in every August to celebrate Will Rogers' fondness and involvement in early aviation. August is symbolic as Will Rogers, along with his close friend & aviator Wiley Post both perished in a plane crash near Point Barrow, Alaska on August 15, 1935. Every year over 100 small planes of all types, designs and ages fly in from surrounding states for this event.
