New Phase


Today ends ”W-2” week for me. During this period I flew Diana Towne’s Extra 300L- nice flying airplane! We had a camp with Ben. Gray and Tim also participated. Alan Geringer, as usual, provided expert coaching and wise advice. I had some mechanical problems, but thanks to help from my mechanic friends and luck it got solved quickly.
Less acro than what I would have chosen, what it was invaluable - and fun!

We got to visit famous Lycon in Visalia. As Gray put it we expected something like a sterile high-tech-shiny-rocketpowered-spaceship operation at Lycon,
but then we found out no, no shiny floors or glass encased testing beds, just very competent, smart and dedicated people working with engines that did in fact look like pieces of modern art. It was very interesting.

Tomorrow off to Europe! Thank you Diana! Thank you Alan! Thank you Paul! Thank you to all the friends who have e-mailed and called from so many and far places.
