Had a Great flight this morning over ranch land, lakes and meadows. Great family with two curious boys, fantastic landing in an open field with short green grass. The Dad thought I would hit the speed limit sign as I approached the field, but passed right over it with inches to spare. Now I’m wondering if I could be ticketed for going “over” the Posted Speed Limit!

He proposed over a small pond while I did a Splash-n-Dash, she laughed and said YES very quickly, he ended up with a fiancé and a wet knee! Beautiful flight, amazing passengers, and a fantastic clear morning, great views!

We had a very long, beautiful and high flight. Flew from New Tampa to San Antonio!
Great passengers.,. they had loads of fun and truly enjoyed their flight celebrating her birthday! She has a fear of heights, but had no fear floating in a basket in the sky!

Joined the 300,000 mile club early this morning, and still working hard! A shout out to my mechanic Jeff Franklin at Franklin Auto Care in Tampa, he has been keeping her running well since I got her 10 years ago with only 65,000 miles. Original motor, trans and muffler, no rust and no internal engine work! Not bad for an early 08 with a 3v 5.4! Before commenting on the mileage.,. please know that I hit reset and coasted before stopping for this photo! 😂😇
