Beautiful flight to Nashville on Thursday. First time I was able to get above a cloud layer. Landed at BNA with the big guys! Wife very much enjoyed the 2 hr flight vs the 6+ hour drive. I may have her convinced to let me fly down to Pensacola rather than SW that we have booked. We'll see.

Hard to beat a ride as the only passenger in a 5 seat biplane! 1929 new standard

Overnight stop at a friends house and private strip. Wish the video would have captured on departure...

Finally got an excellent real-life radar shadowing example:

I didn't realize there was a turbo-jet conversion STC for the 170:

 

[Zeldman]

Wow... a C-170 at 36,000 feet....

After a great visit to the Champaign Aviation Museum the ramp at Grimes field is surprisingly busy for a Wednesday afternoon including a Cessna Caravan. (I'm in the red 172 in the first picture).

Lol at the Cessna at 36k feet

The haze was pretty bad Saturday but I was able to fly my intended route, east to Milwaukee then Lake Michigan Shoreline up to Door County(SUE), through Green Bay on the way home.

Downtown Madison the previous weekend, before Canada blessed us with smoky skies.

Maintenance check flight today, climbing out of Gillespie (KSEE) at 170 kph (92 kts) and over 1,800 fpm. Air system fully functional and plane running great!

Landing at Andover Aeroflex this afternoon...

Landing at KCDW finally to finish up the day...

 

[Maciej]

And also test flew the DA40XLT today with A/C as well, unbelievable how much more comfortable it is flying with air conditioning.

 

[jordane93]

Some shots today in the SR-22. Filed to HTO and shot the RNAV 28 Z with the autopilot and published missed then picked up our clearance to HVN and hand flew the ILS 2 full stop taxi back.

 

[Maciej]

LOVE the interior in the Cirrus, SR22 with the G1000 is the dream.

 

[SbestCFII]

Nice! A little too steep on the turns (Reg-wise), but otherwise SWEET!

Quick trip for lobster rolls in Montauk...

Amazing shots, Need to fly to Montauk one of these days!

Flew a couple kids for their first flight at EAA 14's Young Eagles day in the Yak. Was a great day introducing these kids to flying.

Fun candid shot from the EAA 14 gang as I briefed Shea about the flight controls on the Yak before his Young Eagles flight. Shea wants to be a fighter pilot when he grows up, I told him you can't do both... ;^)

I haven't flown Young Eagles for quite some time and I honestly had forgotten just how fun and rewarding it can be. The smiles you get from these kids is worth the gas and oil and wear and tear and sweat, it was a great way to spend a day.

Beautiful shots indeed! Montauk is one of our favorite trips. My wife loves taking the short walk (about a mile) up to the restaurant and back after our meal.

Beautiful place! Block Island is nice also. Just 16nm east.

Nice! The stadium sure looks different with all of the renovations going on. I assume they are going to repaint Clemson Tigers in the upper deck.

not a great quality pic, but I've been wanting to do this for a while now.....

Some night shots I took yesterday

Some pics from a formation aerobatics warm-up yesterday. I flew GIB (Guy In Back) with my friend SNAP and we exchanged Lead and Wingman positions with BANGER. Warmed up off the coast between La Jolla and Del Mar before moving inland for some high angle of attack wingovers getting ready for a Formation Aerobatics training session next weekend with airshow pilot Mark Levy. Capped it off with a nice 2-ship formation landing.

Always fun to have a feathered interloper on short final when in close proximity to another aircraft.

Tested out a lot of 'new' today with the Yak. Relocated the tablet mount for better visibility and very happy with it (used a 6" RAM arm and the Claw mount). Integrated the tablet audio into Clarity Aloft headset input so now I get the Garmin Pilot terrain and traffic audio warnings, and can also listen to my playlists (on a non-interference basis of course). Tried out a new fixed GoPro mount on the rear cockpit glareshield instead of on my JohnnyVision ballcap, and lastly used my authentic Red Chinese Air Force helmet and the Clarity Aloft's (some of the other Warbird guys have been raving about combining the Clarity's with helmets, and I understand why now).

On the break for 27R at Gillespie

Parked at the Cafe for lunch as the weather moved in

The rain let loose as soon as I got it back in the Yakcave

EAA 14 is a real neat organization. They treated me like a king when I was in San Diego getting our rental house for sale a few years back.
