That's not exactly what I heard.
Hey all, I'm interested in looking at an operational RV-10 to see if it would be right for me. Also would like to see a build in progress if anyone's working on one. Thanks in advance!
This is exciting news! Now I just need to win the lottery! 😅
They said everything was done...😅
Made a beautiful trip to KGMU and back on Sunday ahead of the weather. First time attempting to go over the Smokies, and due to the cloud layer that turned out to be thicker than forecast we decided to divert south and go around, only adding a little bit of time to the trip. Great xc learning experience for me (thank you Winston). This is a trip I hope to make a bunch since my in-laws live in Greenville. It was good to do it with a CFI for the first time. Thank you to Ernie and GCAC for the use of the 182.
Taking my instrument written next Friday. Wish me luck!
Hey, it was great to see everyone at the monthly meeting and the FBO face lift looks nice! Looking forward to seeing you all again next time.
Thanks for allowing us to photograph the Young Eagles Rally today. Here’s just a few of the many pictures we took. What a great event for the kids... and pilots too!
Chapter 699 fly in breakfast this Saturday from 8-10 am at KBGF Wi******er Municipal Airport
Just wanted to say thank you all for the effort you put into hosting the adult Eagle Flight day back in September, and thanks to Chris for taking me up. I really enjoyed it. That day really lit a fire in me and I started training not long after. I finished out 2019 with my first solo on 12/28. I'm now just over 20 hours and looking forward to my check ride!
Hey, just wanted to say thank you so much for volunteering your time, planes, and money to give us an opportunity to fly. Great group of people out there today!
Super Stol build has begun!

Paul Poberezny, the leader of a small group of aviation enthusiasts who had been assembling at his home on an irregular basis, founds the Experimental Aircraft Association and is elected as its first President. On January 26, 1953, Poberezny calls the first official meeting of EAA at Curtiss-Wright (now Timmerman) Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The group originally gathered together to aid and assist amateur aircraft builders.

Made progress on the left wing tonight. Put the ribs in order and did some additional filing. Most proud of my "no way this is going to sit in the middle of my garage" powered wing lift.

Dear Fans of DALLASBAY,
Thank you so much for your response to our wanting to have a fly-in to celebrate our beloved airport. I know it holds a special place in the hearts of all who learned to fly here.♥
I received a text from the owners of the airport ( the ones who are trying to sell the airport to make way for apartments) that they will not allow us to have any flying activities at the fly-in.
So, the flour bombing, spot landing competition, short take-off competition, and rides are not going to be able to take place.
Even so, our spirits are NOT dampened!
There will be a fly-in✔
There will be food to purchase✔
There will be a raffle for fuel✔
Prizes✔
There will be shared memories, shared friends and family, and shared good times✔
Please bring your plane and your stories and let's celebrate Dallas Bay!✈
We hope to see you on July 17th!🥳
All proceeds will go to the Play Like Bob Foundation.

What a great day for a Young Eagles Rally. Thanks to everyone that came out today and let us take your kids up for a flight experience. We were able to fly 31 kids today with the majority having never been in a small plane before.

Thanks to all the volunteers, especially the pilots who donated their time and planes, that helped make it all possible. You can tell by all the smiles that everyone had a great time.

We were able to fly two Young Eagles last Sunday. Both had never been in any airplane. The young lady wants to fly for the Air Force and this just reinforced that goal. We are way behind on Young Eagle requests so it was nice to fly a few. One was from a year ago. We are planning an event in May were we hope to fly many more.
