Taildraggers 2022

 The annual Taildraggers was held this weekend, usually the Saturday is held at Waipukurau but because of prior rainfall, the location was changed to Hastings. The weather forecasted was far from the best, but still decided to have a crack and see what happens.

Upon arrival the weather was just overcast and very little wind. So was great to see a bunch of locals out and a few nearby visitors in for the Taildraggers event.
