• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Some pics from today

It ain't hooky if you use the time off for flying, especially with your dad!

Excellent judgement, sir!!! :engel016:

And one very sweet looking airplane! What type is it?

Ken
 
That's the Thorp t-18 they built.



I almost bought one a few years back, but I couldn't fit into it at 6"4. You and your father have the prettiest one I've ever seen.
 
Hey, thanks for that!

Yep...it is a really tight fit. With 2 onboard you almost need a third person to help you get strapped in! :d
Ken, here is another pic that shows the plane a bit better...

Nice pictures. You are lucky to be able to do that with your dad. You are creating wonderful memories that will last your lifetime.

That's spectacular! And not merely from the polished aluminum, but merely the design of the aircraft itself.

The Piet is also beautiful, but on initial look, it looks spindly!

Although, I suspect you can show its actually quite robust and strong.
