Earthstars at Sun N Fun 2016

[wsweidemann]

Greetings Earthstar Folks,

My fellow Luscombe pilot (a flight of two Luscombes) and I are traveling back to Wisconsin from Sun N Fun, right now waiting for weather to pass.

On the last day we saw Mark Beierle fly a Gull with HKS (just before sunset). Later spotted a Odyssey HKS and the Gull parked. I did not know he was there until then. I'm wondering if he flew one of them to SNF from CA again?

He did.

The Odyssey is owned by a friend, John Karevoll, who bases the plane at Redlands,CA. They made the flight in 5 days with good weather all the way. Not so lucky returning I'm afraid. Storms forecast all week across their route.

Looking at the weather, SIGMETs all across the Southern US.

Hi Skot
Yes I did fly the yellow Gull 2000 from CA along with John Karevoll in his Odyssey, and Dave Lively flew his 912 s powered Odyssey from Slidell Louisiana.
Happy Flying

Mark,

Glad to see you and your Earthstar Associates made it to Sun N Fun again. It's another confirmation of the efficiency & practical nature of your design.

what's the inspiration behind this gull's color code? German yellowjacket? (just imagined one came closer and thee repainted)
