Our red rocket had it's first service today - a 30 hour oil and filter service. So I got to fly solo from Virginia to Cato Ridge for the service and watch as the oil was changed, plugs checked, filters cleaned and magnet checked for filings. All was good, but I was so absorbed that I forgot to take photos. Then bad weather was brewing so I had to get back to Durban. Pity actually as some extra solo time would have been good. However, I was quite chuffed as remembered all of my checks, the flaps at the right time and the changes to the constant speed prop.. text book! Landings were ok too, although had a bit of a balloon at Virginia after I thought the plane was about to land perfectly. Perfect next time!
