7-1-2020 I started covering the Kitfox's wings today. Covering the underside is time consuming because it has under camber and the covering tries to pull up as it shrinks.
The white on the top of the wing is much easier. It is going to be a fair sized plane as the wing span is 87 inches. I had to make a few changes so it will fit into the motor home.
7-2-2020 The deer was back for more plums today.
7-3-2020 We went flying and Dan was just finishing up sweeping up the clippings from the mowing he did.
I love those solar panels! We have the Dish satellite system running all day and I charge batteries the whole time. The batteries are still fully charged at the end of the day.
Everyone is good about keeping the social distancing.
7-4-2020 We went flying again today. We had more excitement than we really needed when a powered paraglider crashed just North of the flying field driveway.
The pilot released a flag to trail behind it and it got tangled up in the propeller killing the engine. Club members helped the pilot until EMT's showed up. The pilot was lucky none of the barbed wire hit him. He did have one cut that was bleeding pretty good.
It was a good day for flying, this is Dan's Raven coming in to land.
Leonard has been flying his Vortex with a flag design on the 4th for the last ten years.
I hadn't flown the yellow P-51 or the F-15 for quite a while so I brought them out today. The dark covering on the P-39 gets hot in the sun and wrinkles so I have the cover on it.
When it got dark I went outside to watch fireworks around the area. James Wood and Hannah were visiting James' mom and setting off fireworks. I wandered over to watch and had a nice visit with them, I found out they are getting married soon.
