September 3, 2023 - Fly to Frederick for breakfast |
||||||
| There was a San Francisco-like heavy fog hanging over Essex Skypark this morning. Here, Mark can hardly see well enough to fuel his RV-8. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
Chuck and Rachel lost in the fog.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Tom is used to flying in these conditions since he has a bush plane. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
And then the fog was gone, just like that. Actually, the fog was just Chip in the Stearman blowing smoke, as he is wont to do.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Today the Essex Skypark gaggle was heading west to Frederick for breakfast. We couldn't head east because the entire eastern shore was covered by presidential temporary flight restriction zone. | ||||||
 |
||||||
| A nice day for it. | ||||||
 |
||||||
| Chip and his daughter Amy heading out in the Stearman. | ||||||
 |
||||||
| Charlie and girlfriend head out in the RV-8. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
Tom and friend Mike in the mighty Maule.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Chuck and Rachel. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
Mark and me.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| There goes Chip, still blowing smoke. | ||||||
 |
||||||
| The RVs are moving out. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
RVs on the prowl over Baltimore.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Eleven Essex Skyparkians waiting for a table to become available at the busy Airways Inn Restaurant. | ||||||
 |
||||||
|
Two RVs, a Maule and Stearman parked outside the Airways Inn Restaurant with the Frederick Tower in the distance.
|
||||||
 |
||||||
| Looks like Rachel enjoyed her flight in the RV. Rachel has a private pilot's license; who knows, maybe she will own and fly an RV someday! | ||||||
