Picture of the Day: Father and son flight
Jay Wilkes submitted this photo and note: “This is a photo of my father Jack Wilkes and me taking a flight in a Thorp T-211 he bought at SUN ‘n FUN back in 2007. He had just turned 80 and was looking for a smaller plane to keep him flying. You can tell by his big smile this was a good day. He had a hangar and house at Freedom Field (AL41) in Slocomb, Alabama. Unfortunately he sold it not long after this was taken. He flew west in May 2014. We used to fly to air shows together, including EAA AirVenture Oshkosh and SUN ‘n FUN. I miss flying with him.”
