HI Frank, Thanks for the welcome.
As a matter of fact I actually started my flight training with Pat out at ACE aviation (Starks Field) didnt finish with him but thats another story. He got out of flying many many moons ago, have absolutely no idea if he's even still in town, or obviously what he is up to, Can make some enquiries tho.
Actually just did nearly 2 hour myself on the drifter at Bluewater toady, getting my low performance, 2 stroke completed to add to the licence was a good day for it very bumpy and a good crosswind for nearly every landing so nothing like jumping in the deep end right out the box. Can certainly say the drifter is nothing like my Caddy tho..
Once my Bushcaddy is back in the air will definitely be coming up north to stretch her wings and get the cob webs out, so will take you up on the visit.
Dave
