My new job down here in ATL has been going well. I have my cabin (actually a converted garage behind a home out in the woods) all furnished now and it is quite comfortable. Chrissy is down here with me for the rest of the month. We have been looking at all the airports to decide where we will keep the Aeronca.
We have settled on "Berry Hill" airport just 15 minutes N of us. It's a small airport community that is pretty much my style - uncontrolled. Can't get any hangar space, so I'll have to tie the Aeronca down outside for a while.
Tuesday, Chrissy and I are driving N. to Indianapolis Airport here I have training to do on WED, then on back home to MN. I have classes in MSP the entire week after Thanksgiving then I'll be driving back down to ATL hauling Chrissy's BMW on the trailer. Chrissy will remain in MN for a couple months doing some work in her shop.
Think I will finally get started on that next aeroplane project I've been talking about for several years... a Corbin Baby Ace. Another wood, tube and fabric, open-cockpit aeroplane. I'll order the plans this week and get started building wing ribs. The plan is just to build all the components while I am down here in ATL then put her all together after I retire.
That's it for now.... over and out!
