🛩️ We had some paint cracks near the flange. They said it's not such big of a deal. Now we got another crack on the other side... 😳 We don't like it. So we detached the prop and will bring it in... for a cheap check and repair, I hope, not for an expensive overhaul. 😬 #avgeek #aviation #PPL #taildragger #Spornrad #Sperling #Hoffmann #Propeller
🛩️ Another #flight today! 🤩 Now #Sperling finally hit its time limit (had 7 minutes left) and I can start planning #maintenance! 🔧 Plus, there were some nice views! #Alps #Starnberg #Lake #avgeek #aviation #taildragger #Spornrad #SF23 #TUM #ZHS #Segelzentrum
🛩️ Someone sent me this photo of my approach to #EDMD! 🤩 Nice to have outside pics of the #Sperling #SF23 while #flying! 🛬 #avgeek #aviation #taildragger #Spornrad #aircraft #Flugzeug #pilot #PilotsLife #PlanePacking
🛩️ Short but beautiful weekend trip with #Sperling has begun! #Cycling to the #airport and then a short #flight to #Paterzell. 😎 I'll be going to #GrüneSonne #electro #festival on #Hohenpeißenberg later! 🎶 #SF23 #avgeek #aviation #EDMO #EDPZ #taildragger #Spornrad #PlanePacking #Mastobikes
🛩️ Trattoria Volare at Airfield Rothenburg o.d.T.! 🍕 "POB - Pizza on board: 23 - Coming in hot!" 😎 #aviation #avgeek #PlanePacking #Sperling #SF23 #taildragger #Spornrad #food #PilotsLife #pilot
🪂 Springerlager in Bad Windsheim! 🥳 Anreiseflugzeuge und Absetzmaschine. 🛩️ Leider "nur" eine 182er und nicht die #Do27 🥲 ...und eine Affenhitze 🥵 #avgeek #aviation #skydive #Fallschirmspringen #Spornrad #taildragger #PlanePacking #pilot #PilotsLife #Cessna #Sperling #Groppo
🛩️ I made it! Took off at #EDPW with officially 346m of grass #runway! 🛫 I always hesitated and cancelled that visit in my former #Katana #DV20 years, but with #Sperling and its #STOL capabilities I could finally go for it! 🥳 No wind, ~680kg and 27°C. 🌤️ That feeling racing towards that crop field and passing the point of no return just for the sake of some scribbled calculations is so thrilling! I love it! I'm alive! 🤘 #AvGeek #aviation #PilotsLife #SF23 #PPL #taildragger #Spornrad #PlanePacking
🪂 That was a nice jump! Also because the #Skydive #Pilot wanted to show me the #PA18 he flies in his free time... which we happened to see in midair during ascent to dropping altitude and had a little intermission formation flight! 🛩️ I'll see if I get some fellow #skydiver's action cam footage... but I could see the #Cub on the ground afterwards anyway. #AvGeek #aviation #taildragger #Spornrad
🛩️ #Sperling dropped by at #Skydive "Colobri". I bought a new slider keeper at #MindFly rigging and am looking forward to do a #jump from the #Porter here. Really nice mood at this place. Fingers crossed for my take-off later... #avgeek #aviation #SF23 #PC6 #EDPW #taildragger #Spornrad
@wohtefak In der Tat. 🌞 Und ich hab mal wieder einen Sprung aus der Ladeklappe machen können! 🪂🤙 Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhuuuu!!! 😎 Dann noch die Freunde in #BadWindsheim besucht und danach den #Sperling ins "Osterlager*" nach #Herzogenaurach gestellt! Ich bin jetzt auch bei Verwandtschaft. 🐰 Jetzt kann der Hase kommen! #avgeek #aviation #skydive #Fallschirm #Pink #SkyVan #PlanePacking #SF23 #Spornrad #taildragger *Osterlager: Wir haben 25er, Avionik und kein Dach überm Kopf!
