Default Had a special visitor at GC today

A new guy to our airport just bought his first plane and got the owner of the compnay to build it, test fly it and deliver it to him. They were there today to deliver it and put the wings on it to fly it. I tried to take a bunch of pics but most are too big to post and I can't figure out how to shrink them. Needless to say it is a SWEET Phantom single place ultralight. I let them use my hangar while they put it together since it was drizzling rain earlier.

Did you have Eric Pederson there today? Isn't he the owner of Phantom now? Nice looking plane.

BTW Ron, did you forget how to use Irfanview to resize your pics?

Yes, Eric was there in my hangar - you can see him under the right wing in that pic putitng the bolts in to attach that wing - So was his Dad - the grey haired guy with beard - and a professional video tapper Lady - the blonde - who was there to take video for Phantoms new video and web site. So I might be famous cause my hangar will be in that video along with my Dominator that will be in alot of the shots. Also later when Eric pulled the plane out to test fly it, I pulled out my Dominator and we made a few passes down the runway together, with me on his left wing tip, All on film that is going on the Phantom video and web site!!!

That plane Todd is the nicest looking Phantom I have seen to date. It had the new optional disk brakes and some other new mods.

I don't have Ifran view anymore. I had to erase my computer and restore it a few months ago to get the porno web sites from popping up on me so often. I didn't save any files except my pictures. So I don't have it on my computer anymore. I will email you some more of the pictures.

I did get one or two more that were small enough to post here. This is Eric going for a ride in Mikes Skyblt before Eric got back on the highway for home.

Nice Looking Plane. I imagine the guy is pretty excited about it. Has he flown it yet?
