Flying 2 Days In A Row

 Yesterday was another warm summery day.  I flew for about 40 minutes.  It was about 80 degrees when I took off.  The cylinder head temp. ran right around 400 F cruising but the warmer air let the oil temp climb close to red line.  I had fun though and may have some more ideas to try solving the temp. problem.

I headed north for a change.  I'm about 3 miles north here, looking back at the airport.

The church below is Saint Isadore the Farmer, we joined after building our current house.  The road, which runs past the airport is US 15.

Here I'm about 7 miles north, looking back at the airport.  The town of Orange, Va. is off the left wing.  Orange airport is just out of the picture, about where the strut runs off the left edge.

Another nice evening for flying.  I'm looking forward to warm enough days that I can fly at sun up.  The perfect way to start a day.
