There are couple WI flights up on the board right now. Think there was 3 new requests in the past few days.

Issue is I don't have my own airplane, and the baggage area on the Evektor isn't large, and I'm not flying it anyways(that's another story).

Might have my own aircraft soon and then I will definitely look into it.

Anyways, a friend is an ATP and keeps his CFI current so I got to log 1.4 in this over the weekend. He did a couple hops around the pattern then put me in front. I didn't land it but did both takeoffs. First looked like a drunk, second was much better. Feet never stop moving.. I figured that out pretty quick.

Is that the steam power generator? If so that thing is killing birds at an alarming rate.
 
Is that a 135 or a KC-10? Boom kinda looks lke a 10 but they may have changed them on the 135 by now. Just curious.

Speaking of tanker flights, it's been a while but I went on a few back in the day. Boomer guys have the best office view in the world.

I used to ride the 135s from Eielson to Grissom and mom and dad would pick me up. Boomers bay was the best place to sleep.
 
Met up with the exotic car club I'm a part of for their runway event, couldn't help but fly in opposed to drive.

My uncle just moved up from a 4 to an 8 and while it took me some time to get used to the look of the more-bulbous canopy, I have to say I agree.
 
I managed a couple of good looking copilots today!!!

We took the lady to Livingston (OZW) for some pattern work and sight seeing. It was a lovely evening flight - exactly why we have her... :yesnod::)

We had a great day yesterday at Avenger Field in Sweetwater, Texas -- home of the WASPs in WWII.

We have been trying to get there for four years, but we could never get the stars to align. Yesterday, they did, and Mary got to land at that storied airfield.

Mary in the "wishing well" where all the women were dunked, first after soloing, then upon graduating.
