‘Tis the time for Charlie to get her yearly checkup again. Taking advantage of some of the nice spring weather on April Fool’s day, Charlie got warmed up and we headed out to drop her off for the annual inspection efforts.<\/p>\n
While I must admit, I didn’t take her flying as much as I should have this past year, we did have a good year together!<\/p>\n
I couldn’t help but take the opportunity along the way for the short flight to drop in for a quick landing at another local grass strip. I mean, it was on the way, right?<\/p>\n
An upgraded beacon will be installed this year, but other than that, I (and hopefully Charlie) are hoping or an uneventful annual inspection this year and a return to flying soon for the spring flying season.<\/p>\n

The flight up was ahead of some weather coming in, but managed to beat it and get Charlie settled into the hangar before it started to rain.<\/p>\n
A special thanks to Jeff Ostrander who caught a pretty cool couple of pictures of Charlie as I came in to land (with a bit of a wind I might add on her nose) on the grass runway at Lowell.<\/p>\n
The good news is he made my landing look better than it probably was.<\/p>\n
Back to pick you up soon Charlie!<\/p>\n
