Spring has sprung! part 6 (last)
Posted: Tue Apr 04, 2006 8:24 amOK... downwind checklist done (including correct freq); here I'm turning to base.
On base. A little close, but that's OK.
Turning to final...
Established on final.
Should've crabbed a little more here, but it's not as bad as it looks...note how arrivals to 25 are greeted by a tall pine tree and a tiny cemetery plot... no, those are not graves of pilots who've hit the tree...
Actually floated a bit on this one, but plunked her down at the second taxiway... not great, but not too bad.
"Well, that was not great, but not too bad..."
I think Jinx was contemplating having just cheated Death when he swung his camera towards the big cemetery on the other side while we taxiied back...
Well, thanx for looking- I have a couple of randoms from the obligatory hanging-around session afterwards (I'll post later); also ran into Marco, who was just coming back from having the Cherokee appraised. Looks like he and one of the 4 partners are going to try to hang on to it for a while.
