I posted this on vansairforce.net and copied it here for those of you that follow this blog enjoy.

Well today is the say 1 year latter from the first flight for the "School Bus".
It now has over 290 hrs on it.
Man it seems like yesterday that I was privileged with riding into the air for the first time after 22 months of hard work.





Through the 1st year there are a lot of memories that we were able to make.

The long cross country flights really make you appreciate usefulness of these little airplanes.
I will list a few here for motivation to the builders.
1. Left around 8:30 local in central Mississippi went to Harrisonburg, VA. stopped for a few minutes and had a burger and coke at the restaurant on the Field left there and went to a small airport on the outskirts of Canton, OH.  Looked at a C-172 for a friend and flew it around the pattern, then left Canton, OH and flew back home to Mississippi and was home by 6:PM local. 










2. Left home went to Lake City, TN - to Sturgis, MI - to Kokomo, IN - to Lake City, TN all in 1 day (actually more like 10 hrs including stops)
