More 47N- 2 weekends pt 2
Posted: Sun Sep 21, 2008 10:06 pmWe've got a regular flying circus going on during these Sunday gatherings... the Champ and Breezy did a fun circuit in formation.
There was another local Champ flying today, but I didn't get the camera out in time... so here's Six Two Echo again.
Pat had to of course fly a hop in the Breezy rather than taxi it back to the hangar at the end of the day, so I insinuated myself in the back seat. We took off just as the last 2-33 training flight arrived, landing on the grass the other way, as there was no wind to speak of at that point.
There was a problem with the second helmet 'n'goggles, so I opted to tough it out with no protection. The O-320 barking behind me wasn't too bad, and it was kinda fun the way the wind made my eyeballs wiggle if I faced right into the slipstream.
Good thing there were no bugs...
