Default Columbus IN

Great breakfast at Hangar 5, Columbus IN (KBAK). I had to wait 15 minutes for a seat because it was packed. I had the Tomahawk... hash browns, sausage, green chilli, eggs over easy, cheese, with good toast. It rivals the enchiladas breakfast omelette at Hesperia CA airport cafe I had a couple of times. Columbus also has a free WWII museum that is good for what it is. Gas at Columbus was $3.90.

Thumbs up Hangar 5

Steve, Was there also this morning and it was packed and like always great food. Our flying group of 12 flew up from Huntingburg. Did not fly my RV8A today a good friend from EVV stopped by HNB with this Cessna 185 and I caught a ride. We checked out your blue/white RV9A on the ramp before we departed. Very nice.

OK Steve, either that is a huge plate of eggs and hash browns, cheese, or that toast is child taster size!

Makes me hungry!

Not a good time for breakfast (in fact the Hangar 5 is closed at that time,) but this would be a great destination if you want to see our kids building an RV-12 at Columbus North High School. By next fall we will be finishing up on the airport, but the build at the school is a lot of fun to watch. Monday and Wednesdays, 3:30 to 5:30. Spring Break is coming up, so contact me first. We love to have guests, and have a fly-in guest almost once a week. We provide transportation. This is of course an AviationNation project! 8 one two 701 five four five four.

thx Paul, I have it now. I really need to get the tail painted. I think that is real flex in my prop. Nice shot. You were a brave soul to get that picture. Some xwind that day. Good luck on your first engine start! Steve

I heard that the restaurant was being remodeled, but still open. Anyone know when the remodeling should be complete?
