I went out to the airport early this
morning. I pulled the airplane out onto
the apron and did a pre-flight.
Everything was in order. I got
in, started the engine and allowed the oil temperature to come up. The oil pressure was fine, the servos
connected and all was good. After the
oil temperature was up I taxied out to the run-up area for runway 16. There was a helicopter doing closed pattern
work and mine was the only other aircraft entering the pattern. I took off and it was wonderful to be in the
air again. Because of time restraints I
could only do some touch-and-goes. There was a slight cross wind. The wind was 220 at 6. After the touch-and-goes I taxied back to the
hangar and put the airplane away.
I have only 6 –gallons of gas in the tank so
I loaded up my fuel cans. I will buy
some fuel on my next trip out.
