Farewell to HEFA / Nova Scotia
Posted: Mon Oct 30, 2017 11:27 pm
Gentlemen,
My wife and I recently sold our house and we have relocated to the east end of Ottawa. I was able to get some good flights with my Apprentice about 7 Oct. I was planning to fly on Sunday, 22 Oct as the forecast was excellent but I came down with a bad case of nerves (do I really want to risk crashing on my last flights at SP) so I did not get a chance to say thank-you and goodby.
I've really enjoyed being a member of your club for the past three years. The support I have received from all members regarding technical issues on how things work and advice on how to fly better has always been excellent. A special thank-you to Brian Gray for his patience and skill in teaching me to fly (or at least get off the ground and back down again safely). As the saying goes, learning to fly well takes lots of "stick time."
I'd also like to thank my miracle airplane, the Apprentice. Considering the number of nose plants it has done, it is probably a little shorter than originally built. I think I have broken and repaired most components more than once and it still flies well. What a great machine!
Thanks for everything and I wish continued success for HEFA and all members,
Mike
