So here's my contributions to this heroic list. ... Can you add any more to this list? TSK, Jay, and you've even been there! The Historic Aircraft Restoration Museum at Creve Coeur, MO. Fly in, land on pavement or grass. If you come on Sunday join the throng for lunch, $5 for a good carnivorous meal that the charge must barely cover. Catch an eyeful of more antique rare and homebuilt aircraft flying around than you'll see at most fly-ins. The other Saturday was a bit thin. Between Christmas and New Years, and a kicking wind. We drove up while our daughter napped. I taxiied to the end of the runway, mag prob, taxiied back, failed to find the problem, watched our daughter while DH found the problem (shorted top plug -- but I couldn't see it. would I have had sense enough to swap plugs between cylinders were I on my own? hope so, next time), taxiied out for a couple short hops to be sure the problem was fixed and our friends could go flying. Only there an hour, hour and a half, maybe. Still saw two Stearmans and a Pitts, flown by people who can handle a 20 kt xwind on pavement dragging tail, and make it look simple. Cheers, Sydney |
