This was a great flying day. The winds didn't start till 10:00. Was as smooth
as glass for enough time for me to visit 3 airports and bullcrap.
My final destination was Andover Aeroflex in northern NJ. Wanted to show my plane
to a fellow who is 80ish, who flys the fire fighter planes in the spring,
and always had time to talk about the old times. Guess he started in WWll. Love
to watch him handle that "crop duster" with the 650HP radial, taking off with
full water, going to get a brush fire.
He said he liked my plane, and even gave me some pointers. I love to hear pointers
from the pros.
Ain't life grand!!

Walt,
I had a great flying evening, in Kansas. I, too, have been getting some
cross country pointers from the ol' experts, at Benton. We had a high overcast,
and in the high 90's, but light winds. Flew formation with Doug and his
T-craft. Determined that my ASI is reading too low. Logged 1.3 hours. Earlier
in
the day, I got my brakes opporational, and they work well. Also mounted a
bracket for the handheld Com, and an antenna for the GPS. Drained the oil, when
I got back. Everything works, no squawks !! I'm ready for the 'Big
Adventure'!! I plan to Airport Hop, all the way. The longer it takes, the better.
Yes, Life is Grand !!! See y'all at Brodhead !!
