This year for Christmas our family went to Indiana. It has been 13 years since we have been there for Christmas. (Pictures are hopfully coming soon.) The day after Christmas my great uncle called us up and asked if anyone wanted to go flying with him. Well, of course, there were numerous takers, but unfortunately there was only one seat. After much talking and debating, it was narrowed down to three people who really wanted to go. Someone then suggested drawing straws (actually we used pencil because that is what we had available). Well, I (Grace) won and the others graciously let me go. When we got to the airport, Uncle Chuck came and picked me up and took me to his hanger. I was completely shocked when I saw what plane I got to fly in! All we knew was that it was his "Big Bird." This plane is a old WWII training plane! (Uncle Chuck has recently finished rebuilding the engine on it.)
The amazing plane!!!
