Re: Flying with piperpainter aka crazy Mooney driver

As stated in another thread! I flew down to San Jose for work today. Started out in the single digits and ended in the 60's. It was much nicer in SJC! Luckily I have awesome friends. Justin flew down and Rob bummed a ride just like me! A delicious lunch was had with a couple beverages then back to RHV. I am happy with this overnight because it allows me to see friends, the SMF overnights I see family...which is great but flying & friends is also kinda more fun! :mrgreen:

Burson, not yet. It won't even ship until the 24th. And now we are buying a house so I have to do moving stuff in addition to airplane work. Oh, and something about working has to fit in there!
