Wow, thanks for sharing Spin the Globe!

Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! I just flew into Nashville from Orlando on , and the configuration of the airplane and my seat in the bulkhead row made it possible for them to just squeeze in my C2 into the aircraft cabin so I wouldn't have to use an aisle chair! So incredibly grateful for the compact size and maneuverability of my C2.😊♿️
