Sunday we had to take the Mustang back to Spruce Creek, and I got to ride along.

The guy whose hanger we parked her in was nice enough to give us a ride back in his Mooney.

Don't expect any sympathy for these hardships you have been forced to endure Roll Eyes

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

I don't see what the big deal is, the first thing I do everyday when I wake up is take my super model wife for a ride in a WWII fighter over lush green scenery before heading to work at Hooters.

Trying not to be overly nosy, I WIKI'd you guys. Wasn't your Granps the driver of that slicked up '51 in your signature? One of my Ocala memories was the miles and miles of beautiful 'Lexington style' fences around the horse acreages.

THIS IS NOT A PANAM CLIPPER

Yep, that's him. Glad you like Ocala, it's the horse breeding capital of the world.
