Had a good flying day today,,,flew up to Sussex airport where I had gotten my struts,which were discarded struts from old GA planes. Met up with John Vogler(from this group) and checked in with the office. Paul the boss/owner wasn'tthere but talked to Bill, who is quite a guy. He's 90 years old and still doessignoffs on everything from AT-6's to full aerobatic planes.Even tho he said that there was no one around to let us in, we took a peek anyway.Guess we saw at least 100 old struts in the rafters, all just waiting to go foranother ride.Guess John can get hooked up at a later date.It was a chilly but dead smooth flight back.walt evansNX140DLPS Thanks for the prop, John.________________________________________________________________________________
