    Paul actually is using one of the older spots that is no longer available.. He is upgrading shortly to the spot connect

    Ask the tower for intersection departure and was forced to full length...

    As we departed... The 737's words were (with a Texas drawl)

    737-them Kitfox's..
    6KA-Yes
    737-that didn't take long
    6KA-2YB...

    John,

    It is fun watching the progress towards Florida.

    Why did y'all stop in College Station, Texas, home of the Fighting Texas Aggies?

    3 photos from the Sebring,Fl. show. Looks like John and Paul are busy extolling the virtues of the most exciting recreational vehicle made.
