Just gotta brag a little.
Yesterday in Zero wind conditions. My buddy and I flew his 1947 Aeronca
Champ for .8 hours and did 80 Touch and Goes! I actually did 30 touch and
goes on one pass down the 6500 ft runway at WDG.
The plane was cold soaked and the 65 HP engine had to be throttled
up gently to keep from killing it. (no accelerator pump).
Ya Hoo! not sure where you can more fun than that (with your clothes on.)
