      Let's see, after the rain stopped, two flights on the A-4, three on the 90mm Yak 130, three flights on the F-4, almost blew it with the F-4 though, light head wind and full flaps, it really slowed down and dropped, guess I fell asleep on the approach, anyway added some power to save what could have been a disaster, landing gear soaked it up no problem after three bounces, it was my first bad landing with the F-4 to, so didn't want to end the day with that one, took it up again, full flaps again with some power this time and landed smooth as butter, all happy and called it a good day............:Sweating::Sweating::):)

            Wish we had indoor flying. But a beautiful flying day. I should have raced Grant here. With the Mig 15.

                Brought out the 90mm F-16, FMS P-40, P-39, Little Bird, and Huey to the field this afternoon. Was a great day for flying!

                  Got the new 3 inch wheels on my T-6, per suggestion I found here. Did have the left one get stuck, but got it down after about a half dozen cycles. Weight difference was just enough to make her a bit more nose heavy. What a difference. Had a nice breeze down the runway, so I got several touch and goes to get used to it. Was a real treat to have every landing finish with a roll out and not a ground loop or a stall and stop.

                    Beautiful flying weather here in Baja Arizona today. Two flights with the Sensei, and one each with the Calypso and Cherokee.

                              Close up from the hangar.

                              Guess I should mention the wood prop on the PT-17 is an 11x8, not the 11x7 standard. No noticeable differences in battery performance. 3.7 - 3.8 volts each cell remained. 7 minutes with some occasional full throttle. Wind bite was a definite audible difference, especially after touch and go or low pass. Seemed to have bit more vertical and a predictable increase in left turning tendencies.
