Hello everyone

My son bought a C 150 this summer and obtained his PL. This renewed my interest in flying again, and after 27 years absent from flying, I hopped in the left seat and obtained my BFR in a few short hours. This fall we purchased a Musketeer Super III jointly. It feels good to be back in GA again and the Musketeer is an amazing aircraft. After only 20 hours in this plane I feel completely comfortable in it. It is the easiest aircraft I have ever flown and a huge step up from the Tri-Pacer I used to own. My son has also got about 20 hours in the Musketeer and has decided this is the plane of choice so the C150 is up for sale.

I look forward the getting involved in the BeechTalk forums

Welcome Jerry! I'm sure you've already discovered what a great site Beechtalk is. Let me know when/if you're going to be in Sioux Falls and let's try to meet up.

Welcome to BeechTalk. Learn to use the search function and you can learn a lot here.

I really enjoyed my Super III time (about 25 hours). The plane had less than 500 hours at the time.

Here's a photo made on the occasion of my wife's first flight in a small aircraft on 6/1/69:

I have about 800 hours in a Super III that I had back in the 80/90's. Great aircraft!
Where in South Dakota are you located?

Welcome to Beechtalk! You'll find this to be a wonderful site with a great bunch of guys.
Being "next door" to SD, I sure hope we can get together sometime.

Thanks for the great welcome.

Greg, I am located in Watertown and Yes John, it would be fun to get together sometime. We were in KFSD a couple weeks ago to get re-aquainted to some tower time.

I am trying to add pics but my can't seem to do it with my iPad. Any ideas out there on how to do it.

FYI. Wingx pro and iPad make great combination for GA navigation.
