Good goin' again kid! That was another good flight. U's most
prob'ly gettin' tired a my lame exkewses, but I
got a good one for last Satuday. I got a message that the FF of A was
a 'comin
out ta tha aerodrome, so I got there 'round 'bout 10 AM suspectin' to
be given a bunch of young farm
kids some rides. Get it? (Future Farmers of America). But turns out it
was actuwally the
FAA of A, you know, the Federales, same bunch as the Revenewers! And
they wanted to do
one a them there RAMP CHECKS on the GAPA. Well that took up most of
the whole mornin' and
I was so shook up I didn't feel much like flyin' the rest of the day,
'ceptin I did go up in the high performance
2-33 just to keep my hand in, so's I wouldn't get too rusty.
Speakin' again about that Sunflower gliderdrome. I got there just
after them B-57 Cranberry bombers
done left, I ain't quite near as old as you be thinkin' I am ! Do
they still have that swimmin' pool out
in front of the control tower buildin'? I got pictures a me and my
entire extended family swimmin' in
that pool clear back in the preceedin' centry, casin' U'd like to see
'em.
