Pietenpol-List: unofficial sortie

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Ray Krause
My airplane is scheduled for its annual condition inspection this Wednesday, soit's out of annual right now. It may or may not have flown an unofficial sortietoday in order to confirm that all systems are ready for inspection. Hadit flown such a sortie, it would have been a beautiful day to have done so, andit would possibly have warmed the hearts of several old-timers who watched itpass low overhead. The engine would have sounded smooth and strong and thepilot would probably have made a decent landing since there was only a very lightbreeze. A pair of Boeing Kaydets in US Army Air Corps trainer colors likeScout would have been up there too, since they had just been flying in formationover the VA Cemetery near Eagle Point.It may or may not have happened, but I do know that the airplane is ready for inspection.--------Oscar ZunigaMedford, ORAir Camper NX41CC "Scout"A75 powerRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
