    For those of you unaware DF4 has his own version of the River Run. It's called my Favourite Mountain.

    I was in the Phoenix area 2 winters ago and DF4 was kind enough to take a poor ole wingless boy for a ride. I was so impressed with the ride I made many modifications to my Model IV (AKA SuperFox) to make it more like Steve's The Wide body mod, and Arizona baggage compartment are all because of you DF4. Thanks for the ride.
    BTW I just placed my order for my travel insurance so this winter I'll be back for some flying, building, n pickin n grinnin.

    Sounds good Norm. Looking forward to all of that.
    Sorry about the ride 2 years ago. I know it was not inexpensive but glad you got your model 4. They are great airplanes. Enjoy every flight.

    Don't be sorry be happy. I already had the model IV. You just showed me how to make it better. Oh and maybe added an extra year to the build.

    It was a perfect fall day for a flight to the foothills.
    Great view of the moutains on the way out.

    As we were flying out and chatting on a frequency our club uses we heard President ED calling and looking for a place to fly. We invited him to join us and soon his Sportstar was landing at the Forestry Strip as well. Had to clear the Bovines.
    Little youtube of Ed's landing

    I don't know what your talking about. I only have about 20hrs since the start of Sept. Of course I would have more but I am also giving some training in the Buzzard and have about 20hrs in that as well.
    Love the 3 or so gal/hr fuel burn.

    In the afternoon I went for a hike with my wife to the Banff Ab. CA area. After a couple of miles and a 1000ft rise this was the lake we got to see.
    A man has to rebuild his Air Miles when you like to fly as much as I do.
