    Today was a big day for Madison ,..for those that don't know ,,,she is my daughter,..4 years old going on 30,..
    we took off from Fort Leonardwood MO and landed in Mexico MO home of Zenith Aircraft 42 minutes later,..she was all eyes as the ground slipped away to 6500 ASL( right around 5800 AGL),.it was a smooth ride in the 182 all the way to Mexico.. but on the way back it started getting bumpy around noon time,..I look over at Madison ..she is sleeping ha ha .
    An eventful day for her .started with her first airplane ride ,.and ended with a cook out and some wing work on the 601.
    we went to Zenith Aircraft Co to pick up some parts for the EAA chapters 601 that is being built at TBN,..and got a tour of the factory,..my Kitfox Hat drew some attention,..but nothing was said ..I was totally ready to defend the kitfox's if something was said,..but very proffessional group there in Mexico.
    Madison can't wait for her next flight,..maybe thursday

    Raining today so Madison will have to wait for the week end,..she hasn't stopped talking about her ride and is now in more of a rush to get the "Skypirate" done than I am ha ha so she is going to be helping me work on it today,..which consists of her and Bailey sitting on the rear deck giving me orders

    Chase, Sounded like the perfect day to me. That is about the age I was when I got my first flight. Maybe she's hooked on aviation like I was even at that very early age.
