Brief Description: Took the day off and went flying - Page 1
Went Flying - Part 1
Ohio weather was too good today to stay in the shop so I took the day off and went flying. First stop was Dayton Wright Brothers Airport to check out the new Wright B Flyer and pick up a friend. I have included some pictures of the Wright B below. Testing is going ok but apparently the props are not quite right. The plan is to get some ground adjustable props and run additional tests to determine exactly how the props should be made. Notice the modern panel and the Lycoming HIO-360 (wish I had the engine).
When my friend arrived we departed for Carrol County Airpport in the eastern part of Ohio near the Pittsburgh Class B. The Ohio Valley RVators had called an impromptu fly-out for lunch.
