What did you fly today?

Now I'm really off topic, instead of what did you fly, what did you eat while flying! Early morning at our field (yes, in S. Florida), usually have deer (nothing like fresh venison chili and sausage) and the occasional alligator (tastes like chicken). They love to stand right in the center of the runway, which is definitely the safest place to be when I'm trying to land. Smart little creatures!

Have fun with your airplane, and enjoy your new flying field when it is ready to go. Hopefully you can shoo the roos off the runway when you want to fly!
Cheers

Ron and I had the two newly painted Pandoras out for their first flights in their new colors. Met Dave Gee out there with his super detailed corsair!
Unfortunately, the weather started blowing in with our next round of either rain or snow.
Springtime in the Rockies!

Nefi, or are you swinging out here to the dry and nasty part of the country?

Yepper, the ol' NEFI now known as the "All electric fun fly and swap meet". I would luv to trek all the way over to your neck of the woods but with the stupid gas prices I can only afford the 600 miles to Muncie this year. It's been 5 years since I was there last, so am really looking forward to it, My sweetie is coming this time now that she's retired. Am putting plans together for next year on what I'm calling the grand tour which would include a stop in WY.

Diane isn't doing too well, out to the heart doctor this morning to see if the fluid is building up again. We can't afford the Biden gas price hikes either so we'll be having a staycation this year.

Nice morning at the field. Good news coming our way in that we are getting a club house!!
It'll be a nice improvement especially when the weather gets nasty or the wind gets up.
Dave had his B1 out today, although I missed the maiden, got some pics of her on her cradle
Had P-1 and the Bitcat out for some flights, last time I had BBD and my Spitfire out, first flights of the season for both.
It was nice to see some old fashioned camaraderie today between those with a lot of knowhow passing on what they knew to those that didn't.
You know who you are.

Hugh Wiedman I couldn't tell you. I haven't flown anywhere in years. I get emails from WestJet twice a week about deals but I never look at them as I'm not quite ready to be packed into a sardine can. I think prices are climbing now that travel is starting to pick up post-pandemic. Coach may be too pricey for me these days. My last flight anywhere was Orlando to Mickeyville.
