September 5, 2016 - RV-7 Flight for Bob(s) |
||||||
Chip Lock, the east coast rep for Vans Aircraft Company, and my mentor during my build, called and asked if I could help a RV-7 builder out. Bob is building an RV-7 but still has a ways to go before it will be airworthy. Bob wanted his Dad, also named Bob, to experience a flight in an RV-7, so Chip helped set it up. I flew up to Arner Memorial Airport (22N) and gave his Bob Sr. a ride. The weather conditions were perfect. | ||||||
We did a scenic flight around the area. Bob Sr. was big into radio-controlled airplanes so he knew how to fly. Easier than flying an RC plane! After Bob Sr.'s flight, I took Bob Jr. up. Every builder needs an occasional RV flight to keep motivated for building. Mission accomplished!
