Day 11 -- R & R (Pilots and Plane)

                                            Rest and Repair for Pilots and the Plane

The pilots spent the day resting, sleeping a little, exercising, and catching up on the blog, and washing clothes.  Later in the day, Carlo replaced the non-working Dynon in MOJO.  Eureka!!  Carlo is very experienced with the Dynon Skyview.  He has the same avionics in his Mustang II so he is very familiar with the installation process and the process for configuring the Dynon.  He did a great job!!

Dynon was also great.  They quickly shipped the new unit to Carlo and Lin's home so that we could have a working unit.  Thanks, Dynon.

I'm so happy.  😇

Maverick also gave us some great "purr therapy"


Maverick loves attention



Claudette and Goose, Maverick's brother, offered moral support from the sidelines.

              We also had a private tour of AOPA.  Thank you Stephanie Fluke for showing us around.              We also met Jill Tallman, a 99 in the Sugarloaf Chapter.  It is fun to find 99s all along our route.

  1. Thanks Myra for the first photo showing the inside of the backside of the instrument panel. Really looks clean and organized, with room to work and see what you're working on. Very nicely done!

    Carlo, AGAIN, THANKS SO VERY MUCH FOR YOUR INVALUABLE HELP AND EXPERTISE IN GETTING THE 'MOJO's' PANEL FULLY OPERATIONAL AGAIN! YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER AND TRUE GENTLEMAN! Not only did you perform the work but your experience and firsthand knowledge with this particular manufacturer's equipment provided immense peace of mind for the women and for the loved ones' on the side lines watching. You made it possible for the women to continue their adventure! THANK YOU! YOU DA MAN!

    So cool and appropriate Cat names for an aviatrix and aviator pilot couple. 'Goose' & 'Maverick' the handles for the two F-16 Fighter pilots in the 'TOP GUN' movie with Tom Cruise as 'Maverick' and Anthony Edwards from the TV series ER as 'Goose'. I love it. Maverick looks like a fun kitty.
    Off you two go,

  2. So nice to have ninety-nine sisters and 49 1/2 to come to the rescue!
