Barnstorming Around San Diego

Carlsbad, CA


Kathy Rippy and Mike Weil gave me a very unique birthday present … a 40 minute ride in a Travel Air biplane. It was much great fun. I especially enjoyed the feeling of being outdoors, and the high performance maneuvers.

I'm creating a small gallery here.

First of all a belated Happy Birthday Robin. What a prezzie, I know how you feel I did a couple of jumps from a Tiger Moth, a very similar aircraft..:>
