Title: Fun day
Post by: john e. holliday on October 10, 2023, 10:31:26 PM
Andre Ming came by and picked up the Streaks and I throwed in a coroplast wing.   Got in his car and we headed for Dave Tribles place as I wanted Andre to see Dave's engine collection.   Then we had a snack.   Dave grabbed a plane and off to the field we went.   First flight Andre got dizzy which was expected.  Dave then flew the tank out.  Then Andre put up a second flight and was doing loops plus eights when engine quit.  Dave pulled his Skylark out and put up a flight.  The plane looked great going through tje pattern.   Then I got in Daves car so he could take me home and let Andre get started home early.  Hope he made it home safely.

By the way I did not even try to fly.  Maybe after a half dozen tramadul I might try,   ???

It was a fun day!

I got home last night about 9 - 9:30-ish. I guess I timed my exit from KC just right to catch the start of the "going home from work" traffic, I was creeping along and sometimes sitting dead still on I-49 near Grandview for a while!

I intend to write up a short trek report including the pics I shot, but that may be later. (Me? Write something short? I doubt that!)

All fer now!

Sounds like fun. Soon I'll be a half hour from you folks, so may be I could join in, too.

We always like new folks around to fly.  Let us know...
