  • Time to make the flight down to Florida and pick up our plane from the paint shop!! Here she is ya'll. First leg of the return flight from Zephyrhills, Florida to Murfreesboro, Tennessee to get gas. Maggie, the controller in Tampa, was gracious to put me up for the night and we get a shout out from our friendly Jacksonville Approach Air Traffic Controller. :)

      Ha ha...our Florida ATCer's always give us love....it's great! The first controller at TPA approach was Jaime's friend Maggie who we took down to Key West in that part of our Gulf Coast Swing video series. Thanks for the support Paul!!

    Nice! Good color scheme Kevin. Good to seeing you 'back in the saddle' so to speak. Great to be flying again. Look forward to more. You & your family keep safe.

    WoW!!! She is beautiful. They did an excellent job. Can’t wait to see the final leg and Jamie’s reaction. The bumps and landing weren’t easy. Well done.
