Hi Ray, I had a great time bringing the machine back to Texas for you. It performed flawlessly until it got to Taylor. But if I was gonna break down somewhere along the way back, I'm glad it was there where Dayton could keep it for you! Murphy was at least being somewhat hospitable for this trip.
The trip itself was great...lots of really cool scenery, and overall decent weather. (Much better weather than I had for the certified Calidus flight from Maryland to Denver a few weeks earlier!) Most interesting stop was my overnight in Monroe, Louisiana. The FBO parked me in a warehouse absolutely full of Duck Dynasty bobblehead dolls. Apparently they're just not selling like they used to!
Here's the gyro sitting in front of boxes of bobbleheads...
Sorry you were down several months getting it all sorted out...but glad to see you're finally in the air!
