When I was a kid, dad was teaching me to fly out of Okeechobee Fla. He had a Cessna Skyhawk at the time. Anyhow we flew over the beach at Ft Pierce on our way to the Bahama's and people were swimming by the dozens and not 200 feet from them was a whole school of sharks, looked like a hundred of them. I have not been in the ocean since. We use to fly a little frieght and advertise over ball games and such with that light under the belly of the plane. I only have a private rating, but dad is a licensed instructor. He has a whole string of ratings. Instrument,multi engine and so on. When he wrecked it was on Tuesday night and we had to have the plane flying by Friday. Our nextdoor neighbor went to from here in Ky to Orlando for one wing and a friend of mine went to Kansas City after the other while we worked on the plane. By Friday afternoon we had it fixed and inspected ready to go. There isn't much holding those wings on. I think they only weighed around 100 lbs a piece. I suspect they will ground dad shortly as his blood pressure has gone through the roof. He is 70 and don't fly anymore as it is.
