Hi,

Last week I flew N1771 to it's new home for the new owner. From Lake Elsinore in Southern California to Montague in Northern California. This RF4 was owned by my Dad's old partner Phil Paul in the late 60's. 7.2 hrs flying time. 635 miles (1030 km)

Thank you Collin.

Great photos of what must have been a memorable flight.

I must get flying again myself.

Yours, Bob

WHAT- such an XC and no bananometer???

Thanks for posting, great pictures and must've been a great flight. I had the good fortune to get an hours worth of local Fournierflying today, engine time 30 minutes. I hope Ray is alright and won't regret the loss too badly.

May the 4s be with you/ Jörgen
