North Central Fly-In KANE in North Minneapolis Saturday 4/15/17

We had a nice "drive-in" for lunch today. Greg Huberty and Andy Kavie joined Mike and Andy Nielsen and their two wives for a good time. Afterwards we got tours of Greg's aerobatic Sundowner and Andy's Custom III. Andy has done major work having removed his firewall and changed out donuts. He hasn't flown in quite awhile so is hoping to get it back into the air soon. I will post pictures when I get home next week. We sure missed all of you who had said you were interested in coming. Will try again sometime.

Joe Waggoner stopped by the hangar the following week and we had a great chance to get acquainted and have lunch. Forgive me Joe, but I forgot what model of mouse you and your parnter have, but you did show it to me and I did not get a picture. Wil do that the next time.

Our Sierra was in annual and we replaced the stabilator bearings and bushings. Very strange looking picture of our mouse with the stabilator off.

Some of the best help possible comes from my 1st officer, Linda.
