I use a tarp over the wing every year at OSH. Once with our 172 and the rest of the time with the Citabria. I put a thin blanket under the tarp to keep it from rubbing the wing...it's worked great for me over the years. It's amazing how much I can get in the Citabria for camping at OSH...

Thanks for posting your video, Dave. I enjoyed watching it...brought back good memories. It's nice to have you back...you've been missed. :yes:

We'd love to see you again. It's been too long. Lunch is on us. :)

I understand that you have a Super D now. Any luck in finding an aerobatic instructor in the Dallas area?

:D I won't tell anyone what a nice guy you are. ;)

Awwwwww. :) You and Jesse are such great guys! :yes:

You have hog-removal devices? :D Gaston's has Bermuda. We have fescue here in southwest MO, and sometimes we wonder if Bermuda would be better for us. All the other local strips have fescue as well. We need to re-seed our runways. The fescue clumps, making it more rough. Bermuda spreads...

I'm still waiting for your V-tail Bo to fly into my 2600' strip. :( ;)

Joyce, I'm happy for you that you will be able to have your own grass strip! :) Will it be in one of the areas that we looked at on our ride around your ranch? Let me know when you're ready for people to fly in and I'll be down! :yes:

Awwww.... :redface: You guys are sweet! :yes: Mike, I hope to get back to my grass strip tour of Texas in the coming year and hope to see you then. Tim, when are you coming back over this way? Tom is taking new students. Thanks to our friend Bruce Chien, Tom is back to doing what he...

Ooops...a little late. :redface: Tom and I hope you had a wonderful birthday, Bruce. :yes: Thanks again for all that you do for all of us. :)

Where in SW Missouri? I live on a grass strip in SW Missouri.

I was surprised at how much my ER bill was after I made a visit there a few days after I returned home from Europe this May. That ER visit for H1N1 and bacterial pneumonia cost over $6,000 and then there were other meds and follow up visits and follow up x-rays in addition to that initial ER...

Sending positive thoughts for you and your family.

Are you back home now? This afternoon Tom will be taking his cardiac rehab nurse flying in the Citabria and then we're hanging out by the hangar with several friends near the fire in the fire pit, roasting hot dogs, and marshmallows (s'mores...yummm), drinking hot chocolate and apple cider...

Cris is a good friend of mine. He is the mechanic who recovered my airplane. I also made a few videos with him/about him. His Pitts fit in my hangar when he stayed with us. I think it's the only airplane that would fit the same time mine is in there. :)

What a great trip you had! Loved your photos. :yes: We were only at Assisi for a few hours and I wish we could have been there longer. Seeing your photos of Venice and Rome makes me want to go back. Congratulations on your anniversary. :)

Awww... :redface: Bruce and Tom definitely rock. :yes: :) :) As an added bonus, the Citabria gets to continue to live at the farm.

That's the one! I keep him young. :D Well, he IS a magician.... :D :) :) :)

A HUGE "Thank you!" to Bruce Chien, for helping my husband get his medical back. Words can not adequately express my gratitude. Tom will once again be able to do what he loves, and that is teaching people to fly. Tom has a lot of students eager to either get back to flying, or to start flying...
