Flying DART Exercise (Disaster Airlift Response Team) in my Zenith

This was my second year to participate in our local county's DART exercise.  I flew three missions during our mock exercise last weekend. We deliver food to food banks in the area using donated food as our load for practice.  All loads were weighed and loaded in general aviation aircraft at the pilots direction. I flew 100 lbs on one trip and 75 lbs the second. Took pics of all the bridges on my recon flight. The STOL CH 701 is perfect for this. This really is a good program  and it enhances…See More

Hi David,

David,

I think I have a local A65 with 300 hours lined up for mine.  Thinking seriously about doing a "full" beanie mod and wing extension, along with bracing for oil canning issues.  Need to get more info on the wing extension.

       Any chance you'll be flying down for EAA Arlington this year?  I'd love to meet you and see your airplane, take (lots) of pictures of it. 

Roger
