RV6A pilot/builder Paul "Rosie" Rosales is legendary for leading large flights of RV's to awesome destinations and blogging about it to motivate us builders. His mantra is, "keep pounding rivets, its ALL worth it!" What a great rallying cry for us to, as he suggests, keep pounding rivets (KPR).
Right now as I write this, Paul and his wife Victoria are making their way across the United States from their airpark home in the California desert to Homestead, Florida to rendezvous with roughly 15 other planes. They just left North Carolina and as you can see, are now heading south.
Final destination for this trip is the Bahama's. The pic above shows their SPOT tracker onboard their RV6A, showing their progress. I have a handful of friends, and many others, coming from all over the US to join them in Florida for the trip down to the Bahama's--including Gary & Caroline, Scott & Deb and Jim & Vicki. How cool is that?
These trip reports are great motivation for a guy like me (thanks Rosie for 'paying it forward' and sharing)...I cant wait to travel with my RV7 when its done. In my mind, I am flying formation with them to warmer climes and a change in latitude, what an adventure! :) This is a great example of the amazing travel possibilities with one of these amazing airplanes. KPR!
