From the Logbook...A Little of Everything

We've been shut down with weather again for the past two days here in Oaxaca. But it is a far cry from the kind of bad weather we had in Ecuador. The sky couldn't have been more blue today. The kind of weather that shuts us down here in Mexico is wind. I'm not talking about a lot of wind either. It was maybe blowing 10-12 MPH, but that is to much for us to safely operate into and out of our airstrips. So, no operational flying.

But, I did make three flights today. One was to our mantenance hangar to pick up "GGU" that was there and work on a few things with "HYK." We got both airplanes running and operating in tip top shape, and by late afternoon we were heading back with two airplanes to Oaxaca. We did a little formation flying on the way back to Oaxaca and of course I took pictures. It was really hard to take pictures and fly the airplane because it was very turbulent from all the wind and convective heating. I few turned out ok though.
