We flew from TTD to Cascade Locks shot a landing and then flew back to TTD. I let Francis take the controls and even thru the landings. I was right there to help if he needed any. He had flown a Piper tripacer in his younger days. He had suffered a severe stroke and only one arm worked. Francis passed away about 6 months after this flight, and they showed this video at his funeral. If you haven't viewed this video and would like to just go to www.youtube.com/skybobb search HIS LAST WISH. If some wants to put the url on here go ahead I am kind of computer illiterate.
I am a 73 year old active pilot and I fly a 1959 Cessna 182 Skylane. Bob | Welcome to the group!!!!
