I made this thread a "sticky" for the duration of John's trip so it will be easier for members to find and track progress.

Thanks, Steve. That helps. I've been watching here in Utah (in the sidelines). Man, they're really moving along!! Any guess as to where they stop for tonight?

They are enjoying the hospitality of Rocky and Denise (orange and white
model7 SS). Both planes just purring along.

Very cool. I first met Rocky and Denise at the Ogden, Ut airport. I saw their Kitfox on the ramp and walked over and talked with them. They were on their way back to Texas from a Kitfox factory fly-in. My Kitfox was still in the reconstruction stage and I hadn't heard of the factory fly-in. I went to it the following year. Much of my motivation for attending was because Rocky and Denise were such nice folks.

Stuck in San Marcos this morning due to IFR.
Both aircraft running great.. iS is averaging 4.02 gph running 5400-5500 continuous. Still tweaks on prop pitch needed.

McBean, Are you guys going to the Bahamas this year?

[jdmcbean]

No we are not planning another trip the Bahamas.. maybe another time..
Think we may make a stop in New Orleans in the way back this year.

Been an interesting trip today.. Typical southern weather.. low, dark, and unpredictable.. Would post pictures but refuse to self incriminate... it's Pauls fault ya know
