Duluth - Blue Angles this weekend

I'm glad I got talked into a Six when I bought mine.

Yeah, we tried to find a good Six when we were looking to replace our
Warrior, and couldn't find one.

So, we settled on our pristine Cherokee 235 Pathfinder, which is just an
awesome plane. We've got darn near the same useful load (1460 pounds) as a
Six -- we just can't have any more kids!

Somebody really needs to come up with a workable trailer for airplanes. One
that doesn't need its own pilot.

Funny you should mention that. I was reading a book about DC prop
airliners over the weekend and found a reference to someone that did
something similar (except they needed the extra pilot). Apparently,
a cargo outfit purchased a couple of surplus C-47s (DC-3s) and a few
WACO CG-4A gliders. They actually received approval from the FAA to
tow the cargo-laden gliders behind the C-47s on cargo flights, just
like they did in the Normandy invasion.

With #5 on the way, I am up against the same limit except I don't have any
option for something bigger (a Cessna Caravan is just a tad out of reach
financially). Already have the 7th seat installed in the Six, and that will be
filled come February.
