Thursday, July 19th, was a beautiful day to fly. Winds were light out of the northeast and few clouds were floating by at 5000 feet. I was excited because for the first time in eight months of owning my Quickie Q1, this would be my first air-to-air photo shoot. The plan was simple, visit my friends in Zanesville, Ohio, do some flying and come home to see my friends in Cincinnati that night! Little did I know this perfect day to fly would be my most challenging…
This ferry flight was a quick trip to Florida with a friend and mentor of mine, Justin Anderson. A simple flight with one stop, this trip was pretty straightforward. My only concern of the day was some interesting remnants of last weeks tropical storm still creating a few high energy cells along our route. Luckily, our timing was spot on and we had the help of a killer ground crew in Athens, Georgia for a very fast fuel stop. Read on for details about the trip and pictures along the way!
I’m always up for a new adventure and love flying experimental aircraft, so I was thrilled when John called me to move his Sonex. I was even more excited when he mentioned the aircraft needed delivered to Kingston, Ontario, Canada. This would truly be a new adventure for me as I’ve never personally flown into or within Canada; but how hard could it be? Read on for details about the trip and pictures along the way!
