Gday All,
I'm not flying a Kolb these days but still take an interest in the forum. I
notice that traffic is getting pretty lean, and I don't know about you but
I've about worn out Utube scrolling thro crap hunting for gems....
I keep seeing these same names for years, and wondering just where you are
and what your flying patch and your flying life is like. So I've put
together a blog of my patch here https://jgspatch.blogspot.com/ There's
lots of flying adventures with hundreds of photos of trips around Australia
and the Western USA. Come along for the ride without risking your butt....
I'm grounded here because the airfield I use in on water board land next to
a water supply reservoir and they've grounded us.... Seems silly because
there's pretty good personal distancing while flying solo and us old farts
don't get real close to each other anyhow, but of course they had to close
the camping and water sports and couldn't let us keep having fun....
Australia is coping fairly well with the virus, having taken it seriously
early on, and our excellent national public health system is coping well. I
was down to my last roll of toilet paper but yesterday the supermarket had
stock on the shelves again so things are looking up. But not the economy,
that's headed down the toilet and paper won't fix it....
So, while things are so quiet I'm looking forward to hearing
about your 'patch'.
John Gilpin

18KS is open every day but my Mk 3 is down for a rebuild. Hoping to get my
FIrestar flying first and then finishing the Mk 3, You know, so far as I
can see someone could repeat your trip across America, staying off the
beaten track and report on this time of pandemic. They haven't locked down
the midwestern states, YET.
Take care,
Rick
