Climbing through the "puffies" west of Bowie.

Chad Bartee and his beautiful Stearman.

The Stearman on a low pass.

Ron and a student pilot, coming back from lesson.

The Twinkie with the fuel problem. (Twinkie = Twin co = Twin Comanche)

Lunchtime at the FBO. Ron on left, Blake on right. Debbie is hiding behind the counter.

The poor mouse with the engine about to go back on.

Circling over Town and Country on the test flight. Looking north up runway 35. FBO is in north end of large building at south end of runway. Maintenance hangar is in white hangar facing FBO.

As I turned north on the test flight, I realized that I could see the runways at Lubbock regional airport. It is almost 15 miles away.
