Fall is for Flying!

Maybe it's the transition to cooler weather, maybe it's just that we get a little spring in our step when the airplane seems to leap off the runway and climb performance is quicker to put more air between the ground and the seat of our pants,  but I sure do welcome fall as a season. The barbecue tastes better, the hot eggs and grits and coffee go down better, the jokes are fresh and there's always a new paint job or a new airplane to admire on the field ... wherever the field may be.

Woody and I missed the fly-in on September 27th with a mechanical problem, but here's a picture of Flying W at Bushnell FL on a sunny day in April of this year. The picture came from the Flying FOOLZ website and a link to that and more from this outstanding EAA Chapter appears below.


The field fills up pretty quickly with airplanes of all descriptions

The Florida Order Of Lightplane Zealots (Flying FOOLZ) is also known as EAA Chapter 1489, and their fly-in breakfasts are a magnet for central Florida pilots. Take a look at their web calendar and all the goings-on at:
