Flying Sunday afternoon, July 15

[Michael]

The weather forecast looks good, and I hope to be out flying for several hours!

Anyone else?

[Bill B]

Travis and me might make it to the field tomorrow, if any instructors can watch us solo...

I don't mine watching your flights in between mine.

See you at the field Michael.

Great day!

Hot but light wind.

Flew my A10 but one of the wheels wasn't retracting, nor was it in the right alignment; I landed the plane gently and slowly with no serious damage.

I flew my Albatross twice, and that was beautiful.

Peter was flying lots of nice planes and did a lot of touch-n-gos with his Piper Cub. Glenn flew a giant old timer, and his big Mustang. Rob was there with his son. Chris and a couple Ryerson guys were flying as we watched. It was really nice!

Lots of flying, and at the end, a mid-air with my Northstar and Greg's Stryker. My Northstar gently glided done inverted with minor damage. Greg's plane was hit pretty badly.

I think there were about 15 people flying.

We had a couple visitors: Bill Miché (an old friend of Jack Higgins) and Ed stopped by as I was leaving.
