Recollections:
My logbook on this one is sparse. No location, no names, just the entry “QE”. The Serial number is listed in my log as “BC538”. No amount of googling has helped me remember more and–I’m a bit ashamed to say–I don’t remember much about this flight, even WHERE it occurred. The flight occurred early in my time as the Chief Flight Instructor (CFI) at USNTPS and, I suspect, occurred in the LA area–probably Santa Monica, maybe Torrance, because it occurred the same day as a J-3 cub flight that I remember well. Anyway, that’s all I have on this one, disappointingly!
