Title: Tampa Bay Visitors
Post by: peabody on January 06, 2014, 06:28:28 PM

Sue and Ray Skinner came to the field Sunday....they are vacationing from England.
Ray flies speed and racing, I think.
I suggested that he ought to take a flight here in the Colonies....

We put him up in mu Fox 35 Gotcha......a minor issue with the needle (broke it clean off) led to a bit of a quick run....3.8 seconds per lap by Wayne's watch....flew for about 10 minutes on 3 ounces of fuel....Ray was happy....

Nice people.....

My bad,  yes the Gotcha is a great plane.  Too bad you couldn't get the needle set for him.
