Time to go splash in the water!!!

Post by WWhunter »

Well, Got the Champ annualed yesterday....no problems...and hopefully on Saturday I'll be getting the floats put on. Can't wait!!! Got my SES rating last year and ended up flying 40 hours in a couple of months. Most fun I have EVER had flying...What a blast!!

Anyone in the northern MN area that would like to meet let me know.

I'd post a before (on wheels) and after picture on floats if I could ever figure out how to post a picture. Not the brightest bulb in the pack when it comes to this computer. If anyone would like to post them I can email some.

Well, I'm off the crutches and getting around pretty good. :) Still gets swelled up when I'm walking around all day. They put in a rod from the knee to the ankle and the darn screws that held it in place are driving me NUTS!! Darn things itch all the time.

Good news is I can fly again :D . Got the Champ annualed and went for a flight last night. Sure is nice to be up again.

I sure do feel sorry for you Geogia guys. When we were stationed there the state was sure crappy as far as availabilty to have a Seaplane.

Thanks,

The dirty side down.....
And the blue skies on top....
