Picture of the Day: Prospective new pilot

By General Aviation News Staff · January 5, 2015 ·

Michael Magnell, who has contributed several stories to General Aviation News, sends in this photo of his friend, Fernando Ferricini, with one of his little twin daughters in a Cessna 210. Fernando, a private pilot, says this particular daughter really likes
planes.

IMG_0029Michael noted he took this photo at  Aero Country Airport (T31) in McKinney, Texas, right before he left for Brazil in this C210 to deliver it to a small town in Amazon Jungle a few months ago. A ferry pilot, Michael has delivered more than 50 planes to Brazil for Fernando.
