Default You guys have some fun

We'll be thinking of you all out there on the West end.

Slick, you and Nasty try to keep the blue side up at least some of the time.

We'll be performing in Vidalia this weekend so we'll have our fun meter pegged also..

Bob,
I just looked up your aprs track for the past event........you sure there wasn't a lot of beer consumed before you went flying?

Looked like a lot of fun.

Now what would make you think a thing like that!
Here's all three days (10+ sorties) with pre-clinic and post-clinic formation practice lunch runs included.


However, NO hops and/or barley were utilized (or consumed) in the making of those tracks!

Jeremiah Weed may have visited during the post-checkride celebrations for a couple new wingmen and a new flight lead...but that can neither be confirmed nor denied...

Cheers,
Bob

Default WOW

That all looks like a ton of fun! Wish I could have enjoyed it too... OH WAIT!!! Only possible explanation for those tracks is all that smoke in the cockpit
Special mix?

Well, you did enjoy some of it. The track to the north was your hop.

And just to clarify for others...the young man means a little backflow smoke from the smoke system...no "smoke in the cockpit" emergencies!

And it was fun!

Cheers,
Bob
