10/15 Ryan visit!

[nibot]

Ryan is here! He swapped apartments with some friends he met in Argentina, and who now live just a few blocks from me. His g/f Lynda also flew out from the weekend, and I took them flying. The area around Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge was closed off for the Fleet Week air show, and Half Moon Bay was fogged in, so instead we went east into the Central Valley: Oakland - Byron - Rio Vista - Nut Tree. I'd like to land at all 200+ airports in California, and this flight checked two new ones off the list. The Nut Tree (Vacaville) airport is adjacent to a better-than-typical freeway shopping center; we had ice cream at Fenton's before flying back to Oakland.

Steffen is also visiting - a student from the lab where I worked in Germany.

Gave Ryan, Evan, and Steffen a tour of Makani today.

Have to be up bright and early tomorrow morning for flight testing!

Any chance I can fly with you at some point in the future? :)

Yes! But you'll have to get spousal approval. :-)

I could even pick you up at San Carlos Airport.
