Congratulations, Rick! I haven't seen 4938H, but I believe you got a good one.
I'll second that, again.
Congratulations, Rick and may 38H continue its mission in life and safely take you on countless journeys.

Gary Shreve flew Rick Phillips from Keller, TX to Topeka today to complete the sale. They left Ft. Worth at 8:30AM and with a strong South tailwind arrived at Topeka before noon. We had lunch, signed the paperwork, went up for a checkout ride, met again for dinner. Tomorrow (Thursday) Gary and Rick will convoy back to TX, hopefully with a North tailwind.

An emotional moment for you I'm sure Hung, must be like waving goodbye to a good friend.

I have a new certification. I flew 4938H back from Topeka under IFG. What a trip!

Took me a minute to figure out IFG
. Watching Hung's video, it seemed like you left a fair amount of time after Gary. I'm surprised you could still see him.

It wasn't "same way same day", but it was "same square mile same time"

It was an enjoyable trip all the way around. Bittersweet on multiple levels...

My new airplane is slick, quick, and pretty. I was giving him some space so I would not fly in his wing vortex. Tail wheels leave strange vortex's you know. rdp
