After 57 years on this earth, I have finally
achieved a major goal. I now fly to work every day the weather's
acceptable. I live 80 miles from my job and the commute takes and
hour and half, but by Ercoupe it is only 50 min. I used to look upon the
commute as the price I was willing to pay to come home every night to the most
wonderful wife in the world. Now, I get the dividend of looking forward to
the trip each and every day I can fly. I have a hangar at work and a hangar
at home to keep the plane in. I pay $70 for a 40 x 60 with bifold door at
work and $60 for an open front enclosed T hangar at home. I only fly home
if the weather looks good the next morning. I have my old
pick-up truck in the home hangar to drive home (or to work the next morning if
the weather doesn't cooperate). I keep the Coupe in the enclosed hangar
most of the time. I know many people pay more than $130 for only one
hangar, so I feel the double fee isn't too bad. Life is great.
Smooth flight last night and this morning both. I will be glad for
daylight savings time. It cuts it a little close to get home by
twilight on my sport license.
I sang my new favorite song.
