You have to get up early in Texas if you want to find smooth air during the summer. So we did.
My wife and I launched into a wonderfully calm bit of air around 7:30 this morning. Even at 2,000 ft. it was a nice ride as we headed West away from DFW. Nothing special today other than enjoying the freedom of RV flight, some nice scenery, and a quiet breakfast at T67 (Hicks).
Met a young man at Hicks that I hadn?t seen in years since my days based at Addison ? he?s grown into a fine young man, working at one of the airframe OEM service centers in Dallas, and enjoying an RV-6 handed down from another friend. Here?s a few pics and a video I hope you?ll enjoy. Perhaps it will serve as some inspiration for builders.
Some high cloud helped us capture the rising sun and still see my wife?s smiling face. Great smile, dear. Great sun, God.
