Just stirring the thread.

Wish I were flying a champ. My wife is taking me with her on a trip to Hawaii for 10 days. Are there any Champs in Hawaii?

All hope is not lost : 4 aeroncas on the airfield I have my hanger on. I am still trying to get my wings painted, Poor thing going to hawaii, thats tough stuff, Ouhu, or I call it the Military Island, Dillingham strip on the northern shore, had a few Aeronca's 15 years ago. I retired from the airlines. I flew Gliders there, and a Sky diving operation was really big on that field. Enjoy the weather and have fun A fellow aviator Sunny

My neighbor flew his Champ yesterday morning and I flew mine yesterday afternoon.
Clear sky and very light wind. Just wonderful.

It's been pretty hard to fly mine lately, it still looks like this.

Hoping to get some Champ flying in on Monday. Warwick (N72) has a Chief, 4 Champs and three Citabrias on the field.

I was busy flying my Skylane to Florida, but now I am back in Illinois for Thanksgiving and I plan to fly The Champ from C77 to Punta Gorda, Florida. A two day trip if the weather cooperates, but if the weather is really nice, it might take a week or so. So many places to land, so little time. . . .

Thanks Tom.
It looks like a nice grass strip and there are a lot of them, mostly private, west of Albany.
