Well, today I got signed off to be a pilot again after 10 years away from flying. I did not remember that the 172 was so hard to fly. I guess that the KR spoiled me. It seemed like I had to muscle it to make it go where I needed it to go. It was most difficult to operate the elevator without trim and in slow flight, I thought my arms were going to give out. It was like flying a brick.
He said that I had a smooth touch with the plane, which is the nicest thing that anyone has ever said about my flying. Come to think of it, it is the only nice thing anyone has ever said about my flying. Even though I am officially signed off, he told me that I need to take some remedial "landings 101", which I have set up for tomorrow morning. Putting in the new fuel sender probe tonight, so maybe it won't be long now. I think I NEED BILL. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R.
