Went up to the airfield yesterday. Wiped down the prop, taped on the bar towels that protect the blades, drained the tank, gascolator and float bowl and pumped the tyres up well. Taped big bags of silica gel over the exhaust and the carb air filter. Had a little quiet sit in the cockpit. More hours this year than any of the others. A few scares, a few stunnning flights. Rolled the hangar curtain down and tied it off. Thank you Oscar Romeo. See you when the weather improves. |
