Today, we flew south to Lunken Airport to meet up at the Sky Galley resturant in the old terminal.
We flew to Lima, OH to pick up a 16v cylinder head which I will deliver to Karl in Colorado.
Cathy Boyko signed my hood, and she made a special-edition PURPLE thumbtack for where she lives in Canadia! 😀 (Yes, Canada is spelled like that intentionally); see the post below for pictures of her PURPLE Scirocco!
Last night went to the REAL Crispie Creme Donut store in Chillicothe, OH.
Today, we flew in Daun’s Cessna 172 to Urbana, OH to have breakfast. On the way, we saw Dayton, OH, and the Air Force Air and Space Museum. We met friends at Urbana, OH. We flew in formation out of there. From the air we saw the F-16s parked at Springfield-Beckley.
Then we rode in Daun’s Mk1 Scirocco to a flea market, and I bought a thermoelectric cooler for $20. Maybe that will keep me from having to carry 40lbs of Ice!!
Next, we returned to the airport at Clinton County, and saw the Ohio Highway Patrol aircraft – the one on the signs marked “Speed enforced from aircraft”. We flew back in a tail dragger Cessna 180.
Next: we fly a Piper Arrow.
Cathy is on a crazy roadtrip herself! The Purple car came from Florida, and it’s been just about everywhere. She was in town with Daun and Brad after visiting Oshkosh.
I met up with upoo2 for some Kentucky Fried Chicken in Louisville, KY. That’s where it started, you know…
Then drove to Frankfort for the Capitol, and took a beautiful US highway up to Cincinnati, then finally on to Dayton to Daun’s place.
