Cherokee still flies
I finally got the Cherokee out of the hangar yesterday and took it up
for a late afternoon glide. It still flies as sweet as ever, and I swear it is getting QUIETER with old age! No real lift up there to work so i dorked around with some turns and watching some friends come and go in powered aircraft. My welder buddy looked at my trailer and said "no problem" so that should be fixed this week. Time to start soaring!

As we closed up the hanger I said, "nice work Ray, you've got our spring entertainment up and running again. Where will he land next? By the way, Ray told me to tell you it would be a good idea to lengthen the safety chain and run it around the trailer axel. Just to be on the safe side. MM
