Drool clean up

Post by hydroguy2 »

I had to cancel the show and tell at last weeks MPA meeting. I felt bad for everyone, one guy especially as he came to the meeting to see Aurora. So today I made a hop up to KHLN and called Karl K (-7A builder) to come down for a look. He said dang I can't we're in the middle of a project at the school. Turns out he's a A&P instructor at the College. I offered to taxi over if he could sneak away. Well, they dropped what they were doing for a little motivational/educational instruction time.

I think there was about 20-25 A&P students giving it the eagle eye.

I needed to wipe up the drool when I got back. :mrgreen:

Also when I parked at Vetters, I see they have a premium parking spots now. I was allowed to park next to this Porsche, the owner has a C-182 but kinda thought the RV would fit nicely in his hangar.

Brian, that's really great! I talked with Karl on the phone a while back. He's a very nice guy. I have relatives in Helena and I can't wait to fly up there someday to see them all and pay Karl a visit, too. It's really great to see these pictures!

I'm only 25miles SE of KHLN and probably can find some hangar space when you get here. Might even have a room or vehicle available.

LOL! Would've been my first question too! Actually, I may have taken it, and asked for forgiveness later... :lol:

Pretty cool Brian. I think my plane would be invisible if parked next to yours.

We need Scott to park between Chad and I so we have some shade while we guard the aircraft.
