Well I was having a Grand time by then...
Image

And here we are turing back towards Wyoming...
Image

Image

And at this point we were on approach back to KGCC.  Here was where Frank told me that I was going to do the landing.  Then he just leaned back!!  He wouldn't answer when I spoke to him.  Needless to say, I was not happy, but when you're in the soup, you just have to swim...
Image

Touchdown...
Image

And the tailwheel.  I did manage to stay on the runway...
Image

I got us parked and the very satisfied customers got off the plane.  I wouldn't admit it to Frank at the time...but landing that plane was a thrill.
Image

After that, Frank took me and his wife Ruby and we went for drinks (he wouldn't take "no" or "I don't drink" for an answer...), Guess I won't be flying again till around 1:00 pm or so tomorrw (24 hours from bottle to throttle...) 8)

Well, I've got to say that this plane does acts like a plane should.  Clumsy on the ground, but in the air it's truly a thing of beauty as it's doing what it was made to do!!!

By the way, the first chapter is here.

The second chapter is here.

Chapter 3 is here

Chapter 4 is here.

Chapter 5 is here.

Chapter 5.5 is here.  

Chapter 6 is here.

Chapter 7 is here.
