Hangar and Home

Yesterday was a beautiful winter day with lots of sunshine and temperatures a little above freezing.  It gave Ian a chance to check out the replacement fuel pump on the Cessna 206 headed for Brazil.  If you look closely you'll see hoses (just below the windshield) from the engine compartment into the cabin for test gauges to indicate fuel pressures during the engine run.  The test gauges and hoses will be removed before the plane is flown.


This afternoon Jason, our son-in-law, brought Javin by to show us what they picked up from the taxidermist today.  This fox squirrel is Javin's very first wild game harvest so Jason had it mounted on this wall plaque.  He got the squirrel in October but the taxidermist has had plenty of work.  Javin got his deer in late November and I believe a spring turkey season is next on our hunters' schedule.
