The 2023 flying season is well under way and we're flying quite a bit. Brian and Sweet Caroline are finally home from their 11 day adventure to the annual National Stearman Fly In, where they brought home two trophies! Brian took FIRST PLACE in the aerobatic competition again, his third time winning 1st, and SECOND PLACE in the formation flying competition! Sweet Caroline purred like a kitten the whole time and is safely home and ready to resume her flying duties here in Charlotte.
