CAN'T track my phone.

No GPS & no location.

Best leave it to 2022, for the All Clear.
Who knows what the after-math of our older flyer's, and there seems to be a lot in the US of A.
will , or could decimate the airshows from now-on.
might take more than 12 months to recover the huge cost's of flying their warbirds. and staging a very large show like
OSHKOSH
but I wish them all the luck in the world to get it up & running in 2021.

My wife complained the rattle gun was too loud, and the dolly too heavey for her dainty hands.

SOLUTION
If you can,t fly Why pay,
Walk away, the more that They loose, it might get through their minds
If you can pass their test your on your way to a Full general licence with their competitors !
Just give it some thought whilst sitting at home.

Stops frozen blocks & welch plugs poped out.

Same as I tried to say.
Use two aircraft, one in each, and stay away from each-other.

OOps
don't tell .20 litres Avgas, same 95 (garden equipment ) 40 litres diesel. 40 litres outboard fuel. ( different sheds and down the mechanics pit (lovely & cool )
My Hummel Bird only Likes the best, Avgas 100LL.
Otherwise it get a hotspot or something ( burnt valves ) and wants to run on after ignition is switched off. No problems with the 100LL
All the maintenance runs added together, would have made a great Fly about to parts unknown. LoL

The first one needed "Obedience " training !.
On it's third flight it just went up. UP and away, never to be seen again,
SO payed $50 and bought another with "altitude hold " Came with two batteries, and camera.
If the wind, Rain, and DOGS aren't around I may have another flight.

How do you fill a trailer mounted tank, after all it all comes by the trailer load.
4x4s can hold 120 ltrs of fuel, without the jerry cans.
Commercial portable fuel tanks can be 150 litres. ( sold by Pickles not that long ago. )
And I miss the smell of Caster-oil that was put in most petrol cars.

The young are going out to " Catch IT " Party's, treating it like a cold or flue.
most will get it over with, then it's life as normal, for them.
We did the same with chicken pox & measles.
AND don't forget the English government gave us kids " germen measles " just to find Carriers.
I had a lump and sore arm for a while, my brother went into an Isolation hospital. Nearly killed him.
