Thanks,
I will have to give those fellows a ring! I had checked around up here and online and had come up with the big zero! But of course you can't even find a Champ to rent up here. 7 hour drive Friday night to fly Saturday morning! Patrick student SPL aircraft structural mech "Deborah McFarland" wrote in message ... In the north metro Atlanta area: Tom Shaw instructs out of Winder flight school at WDR. His home telephone. 706-654-2011; cell 706-658-7135. He has a Luscombe and has done many Luscombe checkouts and zillions of tailwheel endorsements. James Tatum at Habersham County (AJR) is 706-778-9978. Very nice gentleman and a great airport! He has a Champ and Luscombe time. James Collins at Calhoun (CZL) can be reached at Home: 706-232-1865. Airport: 706-602-8000. No airplane, but this was/is my instructor, and he can fly anything without training wheels including Luscombes of various models. Jimmy Garland is at S&S Aviation at Cherokee County (47A). He can be reached at 770-479-6389. Again, no tailwheel airplane to rent, but he can give you an endorsement in a Luscombe. Try http://www.popav.com/Luscombe/ for more Luscombe information. A word of caution: if you purchase a Luscombe, don't let a CFI in it unless he or she has Luscombe time. More of our airplanes are groundlooped by inept CFIs than any other cause. Luscombes are a dream to fly, but they are not Citabrias. Come by when ya can, I'll give you a ride in each. They handle differently.

Hi Deborah, Do yall happen to have a CFI down there with a Luscombe? I really really really want to try one out! Flying another Champ in SouthwestOhio this coming weekend, wish I could make it down to see the McFarland Squadron!!!!!!! ![]() Patrick student SPL aircraft structural mech |
