Hi All
My Boss asked if I wouldn?t mind coming in late for the next 5 days. I thought about how to say yes with out appearing too elated. 9 to 5 isn?t too bad. That gives me 2 hours of morning flight time!!
The air is so smoooooth!! My RV4 climbs at 1500? indicating 100kts not too bad with a density altitude of 6800?at CXP. I played around with some spam cans in the pattern, went out for some speed 155 Ikts at 6500?26c whatever the true airspeed is. I practice my rolls left and right, I did a loop or two. There was an North American taking off so I had to investigate. Sure enough a AT6 was in the air and climbing out on left down wind. I found myself behind and low and stayed there, 600 hp is hard to keep up with. After all that I made a great landing and made it to work with a happy attitude.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
