You know things are looking up when you go out to the Areodrome and actually get to write a check for tows! JD and Dave both took 2,000' tows in the 1-26 behind our 150-180 tug. Easy take-offs with plenty of runway left in front of us, which is just where you want it!
Dave and Eric flew the tug to Petersburg where we'll get a high torque starter put in this week. Look forward to its return, full of fuel and ready to pull us up! Maybe next weekend, temps and weather permitting, we can get the Lark out and see how well it tows behind the tug.
Greg and JD put a good clean on the Lark and the 1-26 while Eric ran for gas and Dave mowed the tie-down area. Another good day of maintenance!

How many lucky rabbits feet does it take to make sure you don't get sucked up into the mower blades? Evidently 16. These little folks were nestled a bit below ground level in the tall grass around the Lark. We put some grass up around them to keep them out of the sun and less visible to the birds of prey. Hopefully Momma has moved them to a safer location.
