Just for fun! Maybe my retirement plan is flying people on float planes in tropical destinations but until then I just cruise around with friends and family!

Had a break in the weather, so took the Cardinal up for a spin and knocked the winter rust off my flying skills. Weβll call this Mountain Peak Monday, thatβs a thing right? That or Iβm two days early for Wing Tip Wednesday. Columbia River visible.

I love that paint job! Also I got nervous the minute you mentioned hand-propping. I haven't ever had to do it, but want to try it out with someone who's an old pro!
