Dec 2012 Christmas Presents for a Taildraggin’ Lady
Greetings from one of our lady Champ pilots in the UK, Nic Orchard!
“I hope everyone had the Christmas they wanted and wish all the ladies a great, flyable 2013. It’s been so wet here that there are few grass runways usable, alas. I cannot remember a winter in which I’ve flown so little.”
I just thought I’d add to the Christmas presents theme:Â my best beloved gave me a torque wrench, split pins, and all the associated tools to make a dedicated propeller care kit.
It seems I’m to go solo on it…..
‘Course he does have a vested interest as he bought me the new propeller recently.
Aviation presents don’t get a lot better than that, except for those like Dee’s, although many years ago I was given a beautiful ash skid for my glider, which was just as wonderful at the time.
Marvelous!

Wish I was flying, aren’t we?
