    Default Not A Big Rush to Complete The Pacer

    Well Guys,
    Granndson called yesterday to let me know that the Pacer can wait awhile for me to finish.
    Now that he has been checked out in our SNJ-4 and a Stearman,along with flying my Starduster Too, it seems he has plenty to fly.
    He took his commercial written last week with a 96 and will be taking the check ride in our Baron and Bonanza soon, if his classes at Texas A&M don't get in the way
    Must be great to be 19 again.
    Jim (the other one)

    Not sure you would want that. Grandson doesn't get a free ride. He spends a lot of his free time, which is little, helping us with annuals and general maintenance. He also spends time with our friend helping him with annuals on Stearmans and T-6s. He doesn't get to do the fun stuff on the annuals.

    Glad to see so many on here are so supportive of a young dedicated Aviator.
