Bob Zambelli dropped by today and flew with us. Was great to catch up and do some flying.

A truly enjoyable group to fly with!
I was honored to be their guest.
And it just got better. I got to fly with them again this past weekend.
Although I live in South Carolina, I visit this part of Florida quite often and now I’ll just bring a plane every time I visit.
Its really great to associate with a club again.

And again I was invited to fly with these gents and as before, most enjoyable!
A different site this time - in Mike Waldron's back yard.
He has a beautiful circle with two paved take-off pads.
Mike, Paul and Dick flew electric.
I brought my old Stunt Rocket - 1949 design, powered by a 1949 Atwood Triumph.
Built in 1998, well over a thousand flights and the Atwood still runs like new.
The photo shows the designer, Walt Musciano, with the Rocket, taken around 2003.
In my opinion, one of the TOP all-time designers and aviation authors in history.
No rules, just pure enjoyment.
As I will be making regular trips to that part of Florida, I hope to get in a lot more flying with them.

THANKS, Guys!

Bob Z.

I can’t believe how easy that motor starts and runs steady and efficiently.

Your welcome any time Bob. 👍🏼
