Great Pics of Our Falcon RV Squadron Parade Flyover July 4th
Many thanks to Olivia Lowman and Robert Burch for their excellent photos & video that captured this epic event.
We had a record 23 Falcon RV's, followed by 5 warbirds from the Dixie Wing of the CAF that flew over the PTC July 4th parade, Newnan and Trilith.
Don Roberts, JR Pigg, and John Hess were flight leads and executed a flawless "photo bomb" formation that followed a month of careful planning. Well done.
Here's a short video that Robert (aka Kodak 2) posted on social media:

Fuel Sender Ground
In the home stretch of my 9 rebuild. Opened up the fuel tanks to have a look around and found this unusual configuration for the sender ground. Never mind the nutplates are on the outside of the rib and the sender was mounted on the inside ?? But the builder went to some trouble to run the...
