March 2006

Here we go to start the year off with Benson Days for Gyrocopters at Wauchula, this year they have invited Ultralights and PPC’s to fly with them and invited as many vendors that want to come Free for the three days before Sun and Fun. ASC and Comtronics have confirmed and I shall be doing the commentating.

Though the Mixture has never been successful in the Past, I think this is a good opportunity for those invited to take advantage and could be a good show.

Wauchula is about forty miles South of Lakeland. Go Via Lake Wales to Bartow and down 17 from Orlando.

Great opportunity to call on ASC and find out the cheapest way to get Sport pilot from Jim Stephenson, course you can also see him at Lakeland too, Sun and Fun 4th to the 10th April. Jim is a DAR now too and if there is enough demand he will come to our field and 

Check your airplanes. Time to get the written part done. Check ASC.ORG Jims theme for Sun and fun will be Sport Pilot on a shoestring, how to get it done spending the least possible

Also come to Sun and Fun and hear the last show I will be doing after sixteen years, its time to call it a day. Odd it will co-inside with the demise of the Florida Flying Gators.

Being a member since 1983,I have had the greatest time, and owe the Gators a bunch for all the happiness I have had, lovely memories I treasure. All the friends I have made I shall miss very much. Oh how I hate old age with a passion in July I go into my eightieth year, which proves, only the good die young. But hey what a life I have had, a lot would envy!
