1st Flyin for N159SB

Post by Brantel »

Took the bird to KLOZ this weekend for their annual open house fly in....

Just 2 RV's there but it was still fun!!

They had a pretty good local crowd but it is my understanding that it was way down from last year even though they were expecting much more than last....

It was weird seeing all the people swarm my airplane!! Scary weird! Kids everywhere!!

It was amazing to see the people take such an interest in our two homebuilt airplanes. The other one was a very nice painted RV6A and mine as you know is not painted but the people did not seem to care!!

At least I made a decent landing in front of the crowd. My friend and I flew up & took off and flew home in loose, (real loose) formation...

It was very hazy and hot!!

Thats real nice,

I cant wait. Lots of work sill left. Building left wing fuel tank right now.

It seams like it takes forever to build on a restricted work schedule.


Take care,
