Hello all, I'm a new sport pilot in training, been in the game for about 3 years now. I own and fly a CHII, and am working on a Delta Sail Planes Nomad.
My FBO is at SO9 (Hot Springs MT), I was given the hanger at the field (only one there) I gave the guy $100 to seal the deal...
I would post a few pics if I knew how...

Re: Hello from the "Big Sky Country" MT
Welcome to Sport Pilot Talk. Is CHII a Challenger II? There are lots of friendly folks here with years of light sport experience and good advice to offer.
Vandenberg Tracking Station borrowed "Big Sky" from Montana.

Was that your unit patch, Stan?

That was one of them, Paul. The "official" early sixties 6596th Instrumentation Squadron (Vandenberg Tracking Station) patch showed a command and control transmitting antenna, a telemetry receiving antenna, and three stars representing MIDAS, SAMOS, and Corona WS-117L reconnaissance satellite missions.drseti wrote:Was that your unit patch, Stan?

Here's Big Sky Ranch in 1963. My home for 2 1/2 years.
