🛩️ 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

🛩️ So... first flight of the year! 😊 Just two quick Touch-and-Goes at #EDMJ (400m runway) and a high key simulated forced landing at #EDMO. 🛬 And a nice view! 🤩 #aviation #avgeek #taildragger #Sperling #SF23 #mountains #Alps #lakes #PilotsLife #PPL #HighKey #SFL

My contribution to #SilentSunday is this collection of #aviation #taildragger images from a past trip to Sullivan Lake, Washington with the RAF. Very well attended, lots of Aviat Huskys, a Bearhawk, and one cherry vintage Aeronca.

I flew up with my friend Turbo Harry in his immaculate #Cessna T210. And yes, I forgot to pack my tent, so I slept with one eye open under a picnic table in Bear Country, USA.
