O.K. Bill, you caught me in hours. After getting in some flight time today I shut down with 122.6 hours on the meter. I got in some formation time with a Cessna 150 and a J-4 cub. I was turning 1850 rpm flying with the C150 and 1400 rpm flying with the Cub, indicating 75mph. I wonder what my range would be at 1400 rpm !! The air today was awsome and I must have seen a thousand waterfoul. I was at 3500 feet for a bit and some were were even higher than that. I could see them against a clear sky. I guess they thought it was a good day to be on the wing also. :-) I enjoyed your visit. Glad you made it home. You'll pass me in hours this weekend. I'll be doing the annual on the Tripacer. It's a good thing you got out of southern Illinois when you did. It rained for two days following your departure. Larry Flesner
