High DB and welcome back, Yes I remember Mile Square and a sad day it became a golf course. During that period I lived in La Puente in the sixties and flew at Whittier Narrows when it first opened.

You have a great field near you at I beleve Chino Valley and I am sure you can get someone there to help you out a bit. If you have not flown in thirty years I would not recomend you jump right back in with a maiden of a new World Chipmunk. Get some help with someone using a trainer first. Do not rely on just a sym especially if you are only just dabbling with it at the LHS. Is that the Hobby Bench or is it another owner now.

Any way if you care to mozy for an afternoon over here to Kingman just west of you I would be glad to give you some stick time on the tried and true Senior Kaydet before jumping back in with that Chipmunk.
