Went to Corvair College 24 in Barnwell today. The Black Bird, a 601, and

one coming in, on the radio, after I left. I will go back in the morning.
Roy and Dan were there, and William came right out to greet me and give me

As Joe Horton reported, he showed up at my place early Friday and put in two
solid days of hard work getting my plane in shape to fly to the Barnwell South

after a grueling 5 hr flight straight into the sun all afternoon Friday and a
couple stops because I wasn't sure which I was going to run out of first (Sun
light or fuel). Ed Fisher lives on a beautiful privat

The Corvair College will be Saturday the 7th, not the 8th. Thanks to Dan
Heath for pointing that out to me.
I just got back from another hour of flying. I got to watch the cotton
pickers turning white rows into brown ones, and do another eight touch and
