Sometimes the scheduling gods smile.
Part-time sim gig scrubbed two hours before show Thursday morning, so I drove out and took the old RV up for an unplanned spin.
4-ship in the area (3 RVs) - had them on the iPad. Kept my distance until they checked in on CTAF, and told lead I was on a 3 mile initial and they were 2 miles behind me. Rolling out and looking up I had the pleasure of seeing the break right over the top of my head (bubble canopy for the win). Three minutes later an 8A took off followed by a 14. It was a busy RV morning as it turns out at Aero Valley.
Mental gyros are realigned for the next several days of non-RV stuff. The next flight will be a gas run over to Bridgeport, whenever I can get back out. What an amazing machine.
Hope you’re getting to fly in or work on your project and wishing you and yours a happy, safe and RV filled weekend.
Kindest,

Bypass Oil Filtration - Any Hard Data Available?
Seems it wouldn't take too much to build something. A suction hose on the oil drain, going to a pump, then through a filter, discharging into the oil filler spout. Anyone done this ? What pump did you use ? And filter ? I can see pushing a cart over to the plane, hooking up, and let it run while...
