    Pal came to visit on the farm the other day in a J430 and decided to accompany them for a little way after they departed.

    It has been two months since I had my kitfox up. Yesterday I drained the old gas out and got the ambition to take a lap around the valley.

    Farmers have started putting up Barn Quilts. This custom started in Ohio I think. The quilts are supposed to have something to do with the history of the ranch or its owners. This one is called "Eight Pointed Star".

    Tractors working. I get a lot of enjoyment flying nowhere just to get a bird's eye view of what's new.

    Spring is good! Yesterday I flew though a cloud of NoSeeEms. It was a big black cloud and you could sure see 'em! Black smudge all over my windscreen, leading edges, cowling and struts. Then I landed and splattered fresh cow dung all over my starboard door, strut, wing and flaperon. What a fly day!!

    WARNING: This one is a little long.
    The title is, The Hawk And The Fox. It is the video story of two guys taking their neighbors for a morning flight in Utah. It all starts out when these guys decide to have their morning coffee at the top of a deserted island in the Great Salt Lake, then .....

    That was nice, Steve! I'll be heading to Salt Lake next month for a Thorp fly-in (at U42).
    What size tires do you run?

    John,
    I just changed from 6:00x6 to 8:00x6 and love them. I've found 12# psi to be just right for me. Now believe this or not, because I can't figure it out, but I actually increased my cruise speed at 5,000 rpm from 90 to 92 mph with the larger tires.
