Default Best Flight Of the Day NA

Oh, you must be talking about landing the thing. :-DÂ* I find the
landings easier than the takeoffs, especially with a cross wind from the
left.Â* There were a few thermals but we were only about 3,000' AGL.
Sundance Aviation was launching the Grob with two on board.Â* I don't
know if those were rides, training, or checks.

Patti and I got 1.3 hours in the C-180.Â* Guess that doesn't count, but
it sure felt good to get up in the air.Â* We just toured the valley and
the local mountains.

I have been looking at OLC and trying to make a determination as to had the best flight of the day in North America. Now listen, no politics here, just flight evaluation and the cut off time is midnight on the East Coast. No flaming liberals shall post. Bob

Dan, that sure must have been an enjoyable afternoon in the 180, I flew one of those back in the 70's all I did was bounce, bounce, bounce, you know the drill. Bob
