      Similar, but that's when they started going to an all-grey scheme. I'm going even older than that with the white on the bottom and flying surfaces.

        Didn't get to fly anything the past 2 days. Had to recover from surgery on Monday morning. I hope to go flying this weekend since its supposed to be decent weather.

                    Bruce Haffner is a legend in Phoenix. I've seen him get footage of a Super Connie departing Marana, and a formation of 4 F-35s flying around Phoenix this past New Year's.

                      Glad there's some relief from this polar vortex finally showing up in some of the rest of the country. Hideous conditions, sorry my friends. Got out and flew yesterday on a day off for the first time this year, and this morning before some rain. Couple warm ups with the 1200mm FlightLine Spitfire, then it was the Freewing 70mm F-16 and 70mm F-104 for a couple hours and way too much fun. Feeling guilty, sorry pilots. Remember fly more, work less.

                            I plan to do the Winter Fly WBC. The date is the 9th????? For some reason I had the 19th written down. That can't be right.

                                      Simply beautiful here in NC today. Clear blue sky, gentle breeze, a bit on the cool side but not enough to make it uncomfortable. Flew my Multiplex Solius, caught a few thermals, did some mild aerobatics. Also my Durafly Excalibur, always fun. Finally my Free Wing Lippisch P-15, sweet flying plane, but I dumb thumbed it into the cotton field. Those cut down cotton stalks are tough on foam. Got some repairs to do, but it'll fly again. Just not tomorrow.
