Flew my grandson up to KSLR Sulpher Springs TX to tour the American Legend Aircraft factory. They make a heck of an updated SuperCub! After that we ate lunch at the Reb Barn Cafe across the street from the field. This was my first flight to fly an approach and hold with the new Garmin Smart...

Anyone been out to Alpine TX E38? We are going to fly out there early Friday morning - our first time to fly down there and we are really excited. My son (Midland TX) found a AirBNB somewhere in the area for us to stay in. Alpine looks to be a cool town - elevation of 4750' MSL and lots of...

I flew to North Houston Regional Airport KCXO this past weekend. Galaxy FBO parked me on the ramp. GA aircraft on the ramp were well represented - Bonanza, Cirrus, and Piper Arrow among others including lots of business jets. We went into the Black Walnut restaurant (probably best airport...

I took my 81 year old dad on a flight to Tyler (KTYR) this morning for breakfast and while we were in the museum next door N912JH landed and taxied up to the on field restaurant. I wanted to meet up with whomever they were, but by the time we got out of the museum they were already in the plane...

My 22 year old son passed his IFR check ride yesterday! He had to fly up to Fort Smith AR to do it - no other DPE's around NE Texas were available until a month out. He flies my 1981 Beech Sundowner, which is a great airplane for him to fly. I actually enjoy flying it a lot too! Here he is...

Made a run down to Houston to pick up my 26 year old daughter for a visit home for the weekend. Flew into West Houston KIWS. Always good to get the only daughter home for a couple of days.

My son, wife, and my son's girlfriend made an early morning flight to Sulpher Springs TX to eat breakfast at the Red Barn Cafe. It is a great little cafe right across the street from the airport. My son fly's my 1981 Beech Sundowner and is about to take his IFR check ride later this month. He...

Made the trek out to Midland today to visit my son and daughter in law. WOW! I forgot how hot it gets out here! We started out at 8,000' at 68 OAT and by the time we started our descent into Midland Air Park (KMDD) the OAT had risen to 78 degrees F. Of course by then we were only 4800' AGL...

N6105U over Lake Lavon north of Dallas this past weekend (May 31).

Departed Gladewater TX 07F for Madison WI KMSN to meet up with my son and go to OshKosh. Five days was plenty. Made it back last night and am worn out! But had a great time and already making plans for 2019. My new to me 1995 Commander 114B did great. Ran into a little weather on the way...

Well, I am the proud new owner of a 1995 Commander 114B! This is a great airplane with 1874TT and all orginal paint, interior, and panel. It is in great condition. I flew it down from Islip NY to NE Texas last Friday. The flight went great and I had the time of my life. Thank you to Judi...
