N70DV low and over the hangars at Mallard's Landing. That's another Mooney in there. |
Here it is beside Jim Frank's N4189 and his hangar. Mallard's Landing is a fly-in community (GA04), located just southeast of ATL. |
Janet Francum of Florida briefly owned N70DV before selling it to Gus in August. |
N70DV was rebuilt in 2000 by Ron Anderson in Illinois for previous owner Donald Vecchie. |
Gus and Jim are having a ball flying their new Mites together. These pictures were taken south of Atlanta, GA by Vic Syracuse, also of Mallard's Landing, from his Stearman. |
