Congratulations, Richard. Yes, sometimes flying the old planes is more fun.

Congrats Richard. That is one tough plane to fly and one tough checkride to get passed so be proud of conquering that one. I didn't have the same luck as you as far as getting the mixtures dialed in for best performance. I could barely get that baby up to minimums for that paticular route. Great job.
