66 tucked in Stearman row at Blakesburg
Yay! The airport is open again, we gained an extra hour with the end of Daylight Savings Time, and this weekend was gorgeous. Can you believe we didn't fly once this weekend? Our good friends Dan and Diane (who have Navy Stearman 66) stopped by and offered to help us install installation in the hangar... and we're never going to turn down that kind of help! After a productive day and late night (don't worry, we didn't work that much), we decided to enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon. We had a great weekend, and we hope you did, too.

By the way, the Half Fast Forum has been fixed. Feel free to use it!

What's really interesting is that both Stearmans were restored by the same guy - just happened to be parked next to each other...

I didn't realize that. Very cool!

    Welcome to our virtual hangar
    Every flying adventure brings new places and faces.  The weather's right so we climb into a vintage taildragger to see what awaits.  Tonight, we'll have a tale to share; tomorrow is a new adventure to discover.
    Put your feet up, take a swig of your favorite drink, and escape with us on some fun, sometimes strange, but always worthwhile adventures.
