For a short time yesterday I was a little disappointed when I got weathered in at Savannah, TN but turns out it was the absolute best thing that could have happened. Montill Warren, my favorite airport manager anywhere and the manager at KSNH,Savannah, TN and...
I have always been interested in flying since I was young but the timing just wasn't right. Then about 4 years ago I met my other half, Chuck, who just happened to have a 1940 Taylorcraft. Soon after I started to take instruction at our local airport....
