Thank you! It sure does!

Well, the first official passenger looks to be my wife - this coming weekend. We'll be having Lunch in Napa, and a couple of my friends are flying up from Palo Alto to meet us there. A nice short ride to get her used to the idea of flying places - since she's never been in a GA aircraft...

Of course, the big decision I need to make, what do I want to train for next?? a) transition into the Cirrus SR-20. b) Tailwheel endorsement in the Citabria. c) Acrobatic/spin training. Decisions... decisions... :) Robert

I drop in from time to time, and happened to see Brook's post. I suspect I'll be around a bit more now that I'm not studying aviation material every free moment I'm awake ;) Now, to plan my first passenger trip, lunch in Napa next weekend! :yesnod: Robert

I won't be there this year, but I'm hoping to make it next year... and yes, I'll take you flying when (not if) I make it back out to Gaston's. BTW, I owe you a huge thank you - I forgot all about the acrobatic DVDs you were going to send me, and they sat in a pile of mail that my wife sorted...

Thank you!

I enjoyed every second of my Birddog ride. I don't even remember the bumps :) It's a close race between the Citabria and the Birddog, for my favorite ride this year. I really like the tandem seating, it just seems to be such a natural configuration. Robert

I'll happily reshoot those sections again next year! :goofy: Robert

:yes:, Yes we did!!!! I'll do that again anytime!!! In fact, I made a screen saver for my work computer of nothing but Gaston's pics. :) Robert

I HIGHLY recommend it!!

And yet more photos . . . http://gallery.mac.com/rwc101010 I'm still uploading, so the selection will grow over time. Enjoy! Robert

You're very welcome! Truth be told, we didn't want to leave either... :( I'm glad you guys made it back safely, we kept an eye on you guys all the way back to California. I'm really looking forward to hearing a bit more about your flight over north Texas and New Mexico - based on the...

Yeah, every time I see it I get my 'loop' smile back!!!

You are very welcome, and THANK YOU for the ride in the Viking! What a unique and capable airplane! Robert

I was sitting right seat in the Archer . . . and you went by like we were sitting still. I couldn't even get the camera out in time to get an air-to-air shot! ;) That Bonanza is one FAST airplane. I would love to get a ride in it next year if you're there! Robert

I didn't realize how interactive this board was . . . we must have been all typing replies at the same time based on the time stamps :D

Brook and I found just such a camera laying behind the garbage can behind the picnic benches. I believe she took it back with her, to NC. Also found on the picnic bench after all had left, a plastic portfolio/envelope with some aircraft sales literature, CDs and a Garmin GPS Checklist. I...

No, not at all! I totally get it :)

It was a wonderful first acrobatic flight, and by far, the smoothest flight over the lake that I experienced all weekend. Either you have the magic touch, or a magic airplane :) I won't speak for Will (or maybe I will) . . . but we talked about the fly-in from the time we left Gaston's...

I want to add my own thank you to Kim, for the awesome ride in the Bird Dog! All I can say is WOW, I'm hooked. Now to find one of those for sale on on the west coast ;) Pete, thank you for the poker run adventure. I enjoyed every last minute of it, right down to the "interesting" return...
