Celia's Cessna 180 featured as the new LLT cover shot happens to be my husband's old "courting" airplane! He totally rebuilt it back in the 70's and it was the first plane I was ever in..fond memories. Always loved the 180!

I just saw an ad for a 1927 film,"Wings", a silent film that launched Gary Cooper's career. The stars took flying lessons in 1927, the flying instructor ducked in the rear seat during filming. "shot on location on a budget of $2 million at Kelly Field in San Antonio, Texas. Hundreds of extras and some 300 pilots were involved in the filming, including pilots and planes of the United States Army Air Corps." I've never watched an entire silent movie. That's about to change.

Anybody in Chicagoland hungry? As always, this is late notice but if you're close (or not so close) to KRPJ and want to meet for lunch today at The Flight Deck Restaurant, come on. Boyd and I are flying together in his RV7 from Indy. I'm guessing we'll get there 11 or 11:30 Chicago time.
