I am a ‘56 Cessna 172 Tailwheel. Follow along as I try to teach my human how to fly...I’ve been flying a LOT longer than he has! 🙄

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Hurricanes brewing in the Pacific Ocean, Santa Ana’s blowing’ hot from the North, triple digits over multiple days. Sounds like October in SoCal. Beautiful morning flight today, dead calm already 80° and climbing. But the skies were empty because it is the middle of the week, and the air was still calm and cool enough to enjoy. Now we will just hang out and watch the temperatures and the wind speeds climb, as @twoeleven_aviation now must wipe dead bugs off my paint. 👍👍

👈SWIPE!!! Happy Birthday, ‘merica 🇺🇸

When you are a Red/White/Blue airplane with a 🇺🇸 on your tail, this is kind of your season, right? Yes, @navi_oneer77 was the first to launch dawn patrol from @cableairport yesterday, but we were second, more rested, and more cofee’d up. BEAUTIFUL flight over the still waking valley. Last night, the annual fireworks show in Upland, CA went off right outside my hangar as it does, topping off an epic day of U S of A flying freedom. 👍👍

👈 SWIPE!!! @flabobairport KRIR in Jarupa Valley, CA. Home of @eaa’s @eaa.chapter1 and the Low and Slow Fly In, @westcoastaircreations_aviation, @theflabobairportcafe, @flabob_express, and my favorite local grass strip to land @oneseventytoo. So many more reasons to stop by, there is so much aviation history here, and really good food. 😎👍

Return to service flight after my 2026 Annual last week. Here, I show @twoeleven_aviation that I fly MUCH better when he keeps his hands off the controls, and his feet off the pedals. I received a clean bill of health, and required only a replacement ELT battery, the preventative replacement of my oil supply and return lines for the remote oil filter, and an oil change. SWIPE👉 to see my post-annual freshly cleaned airframe. 🏴‍☠️

Yes, it is a ‘replica’ (a very accurate one). No, those are not the ‘original’ engines, but please, go ahead and ask anyway. 😎👍

Near max gross weight landing on @flabobairport ‘s grass. Mr. and Mrs. @twoeleven_aviation, plus ALL the camping gear (and plenty of 100LL) plop onto my L-19 Lady Legs, keeping my PAX floating smooth over the lumps and bumps, on a warm and breezy evening. No problemo. 😉👍
