Departed SBP (San Luis Obispo, CA) in my trusty 680F (N6253X) Monday 0630 for CCR (Concord, CA) to pick up my client Tom. Then on to LMT (Klamath Falls, OR) for a fuel stop, and on to AWO (Arlington, WA) to meet up with the fine folks at Air Matrix. Started out with headwinds of about 30 knots...finally dissapated south of Seattle. Total time SBP to AWO about 4 hrs 20 min. Met at AWO by Bill Williams, Kelly Piper, and the Air Matrix crew...they even had lunch waiting for us. Bill and gang are restoring a 560A, which is absolutely beautiful. They run a first rate organization of software engineering, avionics testing & installation, flight testing, and full blown airframe & overhaul shop run by John Puckett...really enjoyed touring their immaculate facilities. After visiting a construction project in Seattle on Monday & Tuesday morning, the rain stopped and the weather cleared up so I could fly 53X over to San Juan Island to visit another project site at Roche Harbor (a custom home and attached hangar). Wow...the San Juan's looked spectacular, and after lunch at picturesque Friday Harbor, I was headed back to AWO on Tuesday Afternoon. Wednesday morning John Puckett hooked up the Air Matrix tug to 53X, pulled her out of the hangar, we said our goodbyes to our hosts, and headed south into cloudy skies. Can you believe it...headwinds again. This time 40 to 50 knots on the nose. Another gas stop at LMT, dropped off Tom at CCR, and home to SBP Wednesday afternoon. 10.9 hours on the hobbs, and a ton of great memories. Thanks to Air Matrix for their great Washington State hospitality. Attached are photos of Bill & Kelly in front of 53X, and the gorgeous 560A under construction. Check out the Air Matrix website at www.air-matrix.com. Only downside to the trip was not being able to hook up with Captain JimBob...we just kept trading voicemail messages...maybe next time Jim..?? ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 05:24:47 PM PST US From: MOEMILLS@aol.com Subject: Commander-List: How many 680FP Aero Commanders are there? --> Commander-List message posted by: MOEMILLS@aol.com Fellow Commander Drivers: The new web page is really great. While checking our the FAA registry through the link I found that there were only three 680F(P) aircraft listed, however my plane (N680RR) is listed as a 680F. Does anyone (Barry) have any idea about how many 680F(p) aircraft might still be in the air? There were only 46 built according to the "Guide to the Piston Powered Aero Commanders" list? Best regards, Moe N680RR ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 05:35:58 PM PST US From: "Nico van Niekerk" Subject: Re: Commander-List: Great Seattle Trip C:\DOCUME~1\USER\MYDOCU~1\MYPICT~1\SEATTL~1\P3190018.JPG; --> Commander-List message posted by: "Nico van Niekerk" Randy, Help me out here if you will. Several emails on this list refer to pictures that one can view, but I just cannot find them anywhere. They are not in the photo archives. Do you guys upload them elsewhere and if so, is it possible to let me know where?
