I forgot to post pictures the other day of the grandmother I'm naming the plane after - Sadie!

From her ancestry.com profile:

When Sadie Fuchs was born on February 14, 1906, in New York, her father, Israel, was 34, and her mother, Jennie, was 32. She married Adolph Braun on June 6, 1930, in Bronx, New York. They had two children during their marriage. She died on May 25, 1956, in New York, New York, at the age of 50, and was buried in Fairview, New Jersey.

Before children. This is at Central Park in Manhattan and the wall she's sitting on is the wall that goes around the park.

Maybe in the Catskills of New York State.

Their twins! My mom, Joan, is on the right in the picture and her twin brother, Joseph, is next to her.

A few years later. Mom on the right.


My mom in the early 1970's.

And recently. I can't wait to take mom up in Sadie!


As I get closer to bringing my plane back, I'm getting excited to push it back into my hanger at 6B6!

A local pilot recently took a very nice picture of the airport and I've annotated it with my hanger location (blue arrow).  The main runway was recently extended and is now 3,110 feet.

Pretty much done with the painting!

Are the cops checking out my plane? 🤣

Sadie!  Named after my maternal grandmother, who passed away several years before I was born (when my mom was only 22).

Studying for my instrument rating.  Think I have it covered? 😁

New pics hot off the press!





Nice! :-D

Just ordered my custom Sling 4 travel canopy cover from here.  Getting close!
Getting close!  Remaining blue going on today and being picked up tomorrow!
