Don Parsons' Blog: Nice day to wash the plane.

Posted in Members | April 01, 2012

This article is from Don Parsons' Blog Flying Antique Airplanes, who has kindly granted permission to re-publish on AntiqueAirfield.com.

Sky and I went out and washed the plane this morning. Since the airport uses mineral-rich well-water, we took 10 gallons of our own and a garden bug sprayer to rinse it off. The airplane was covered with pollen, it seemed especially bad this year with our lack of a real winter and an early spring.
