Each sunrise is an opportunity to learn more than you knew the day before.

A complex man, but I sure enjoyed his presence and like you, I can't look at a Pushpak without a smile.   Still waiting on the
end of the dock in the shipping crates. . .

Always missed and every time I see a champ I wonder if it’s one of his imports

Rafael, you forgot to say, everytime I see one of those Champs, it is from behind, as it is much faster than a Chief.....
sorry i could not resist.     

Still on the look for a Pushpak and hope Robert is resting easy now.

I agree if you are in the Groooman my Speedy Champ will only see your tailfeathers Raf!  

Unless you have ice on those smooth white wings...... LOl

I have a spray bottle of MMO that I use on the wings in every preflight as anti ice and as bug repellent

You guys are just so jealous of being able to see out both sides of the window that you just can’t stand it.

That’s why it is called a CHAMP J!
