Here are a few more before shots , she really needed a new home.

After getting the pictures at Mount Olive, I made the short flight up to Goldsboro where Bill was working on his multi engine rating. I was going to go around Seymour Johnson AFB but the Cub climbs so well I just went over the class D at 2600 ft. I did call them and they were very nice, not much activity on Saturday.  The locals all remembered the little Clipwing Cub and I heard more stories about it's past exploits than I wanted to hear! Part of the tour included this sweet Fairchild 24W.

When Bill's lesson was finished we all went to lunch at Andy's and it was time to head for home.
I finally got to take advantage of the SW wind. I climbed right up to 3500 feet and set 2350 rpm for a blistering 107 mph GS ! It was a fantastic flight, crystal clear, smooth, and the heater just keeping it comfortable. The wind increased as I headed toward home and I was showing 114 mph just before descending into JGG. After landing I did a thorough inspection for peeled and burned paint.
Overall a great trip in a wonderful old airplane.
