Beautiful morning to fly ... The morning started with a Turbo Arrow test flight and then a flight in my Cherokee 180C to Sebring Airport for the Light Sport Expo. Curt LoPresti came along for the flight, as he was a featured speaker in a Forum at 2 pm. Beats driving a rental car, right Curt?
Well, since Trudi was at a quilt show in Orlando my internal GPS and autopilot found its way back to the airport to wipe down the leading edges of the Cherokee. Timing is everything and as the sun started to set the clouds created quite an impressive image. Lucky for me, the new Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ50 was still in the front seat and out it came. This camera with its Leica lens is a real gem!
Enjoy the sunset and a few other photos from the day.

Happy Birthday Mike Harris
My massage therapist and friend, Kelly Walker, gave her father a special present on his birthday today. Mike Harris received an airplane ride in my 1967 Piper Cherokee 180C. We spent a little over an hour flying along the Vero Beach Coast, Blue Cypress Lake and over Mike's properties in Southwest Vero Beach. Mike is an accomplished pilot who flew in Vietnam. But, he has not been flying in general aviation for many years. His grandson Chase, who had already flown his Young Eagle flight with me a few months earlier, came along for the ride as did Kelly.
