START OF A NEW YEAR

January has come and gone, how time flys. I performed at the Cable Air Show on the 11-12th. The weather was cool and clear. The show went really well and the crowd was larger then expected. A nice start to the new year. My next show is the Riverside Air Show on April 6. I am still finalizing my 2013 schedule so it is not posted yet. I will be at Hollister on May 24-26 and then a number of shows after that. Watch for the 2013 schedule it will be up soon. And if you are at any of the shows this year be sure to stop by and say hi.

Looking Forward to 2013

My last post was quite negative, and I did miss the three air shows. But I got the engine done in time to fly the Livermore Air Show so the season ended well. I just finished the Conditional Inspection (Annual) so the plane is ready for the 2013 season. Next month is the International Council of Air Shows Convention which is always fun and interesting. My first air show of the 2013 season is the Cable Air Show in Upland Ca on Jan. 12-13. Always a fun Show. I want to wish all of you Happy Holidays, and I hope to see you at one of the Air Shows next year

A PROBLEM

My post of last week has changed drastically. On the way to the WINGS OVER WINE COUNTRY Air Show when I stopped for fuel I discovered an engine problem. So I limped home missing the show. The fix requires a complete engine tear-down which takes time. So I will miss the AIRSHOW OF THE CASCADES on August 24-25 and maybe even the WATSONVILLE AIR SHOW the next weekend although I might just get to that one if everyone goes right.
