Barely.
How goes Mike? This year was a writeoff for me! I flew 3 times...
Vaction,then family staying for most of the summer, finish some reno's and finally Sept comes,
everyone gone.
Then work gets stupid busy-work w/ends ..
October arrives , time to fly right! nope...
House gets B&E'd :evil:
Trashed the house, but cats ok thankfully.
Fighting insurance co but looking better now.

*forgot one...trusty old computer died last week, hard drive kaputt.
Just getting around to fixing it now.

Stop the world, I want to get off !

Hey Glen , I traded my old grinder pc in for a surface pro 2 years ago . No moving parts in this thing .And its faster .

As far as relatives go , you love to see them But love to see them go even more .

House brake ins suck , we've gone through it years ago and it takes a while to get over it .

Haven't done much flying this year either . I hear there moving the runway closer to the pits .

I like the Idea . Wont have to walk so far back after a flame out.

Still thinking of rebuilding this Camel . May start this winter , probably a 2 year project .

Take care

Mike

Hi Glen ,I took the Revolver and the flying boat anchor out for a winter run up before the long winter nap .
The bloody Ultimate had the throttle reversed and when it started scared the shit out off me about 12,000 RPM ..

I got the Corse Air and the Spit on the charger , next dry day I'll run them up for winter storage .
The B-51 B will have to wait ...it's got a stuck valve and the tappet cover has a stripped socket bolt head.

Mike

They are Remembered .

No, it has not been moved. We were there last weekend and it was VERY VERY wet. It probably will be some time before we could work on the runway.
