Trying to get some flying cowboys to try my yard runways. Got a windsock in the mail yesterday but havent put it up yet?

I have an A&p, and am low time, out of currency PP. working on rebuilding a Cessna 177 at my house. Built a t hangar thats 40 wide and 31 deep if bad weather sprang up you could keep it sheltered

id like to build time, get reacclimated, talk aboot mountain flying(licensed down at OKState) so this brown, dirt notjingnsss as far
As the eye can see is unnerving on low vis days (got 2 hours in 172 AF trainer model from scott aviation)

On the wrong side of the mountain, but give a shout if you start making trips west. Lot's of good strips in UT.

Nice! Do you know Ladd at Mack Mesa? Good guy and he's doing a lot of T/W instruction these days if you want to come over to the dark side.

My son is working on his private pilots license and maybe commercial flight as a career. He is interested in STOL, watches a lot of Trent Palmer and Patey on Youtube.

Patey is another level. Mostly from the engineering point of view. Good stuff!
