Flying in South Carolina, November 2011
 
 
On our recent visit to our friend Lee in South Carolina we were both looking forward to seeing his F1 Rocket flying for the first time, having seen it in various stages of build on previous visits. We arrived a few days before Veterans' Day and Lee had been asked to join a small formation and flypast over Dataw Island where a Purple Heart Golf Tournament was being held in aid of the Wounded Warrior Project. He invited one of us to fly with him and Janet went along for the ride.

Lee offered to take Andy out for a flight afterwards. Andy had a great time, and got the opportunity to take the controls . . .

Thanks again Lee!
