VISIT FROM BRASIL

20 January 2008 | MDR
Marina
The phone rang,Troy said: its a weird number!
Lucky for us they left a message.
It was our dear friends Carlos Edo and his son Sebas, all the way from Brasil!
They where on a business trip with other friends Eloy and Max .Helicopter pilots, aerobatic pilots and skydivers! WHAT A CREW!
They were here in LA, looking for an aircraft and were doing some sightseeing around LA, when they arrived in Marina Del Rey, marina reminded them about ME! Marina
They called Leila,our beloved friend and caretaker in Boituva, Brasil, and she gave them our phone.
We called back and in less than 10 minutes they were here at the CYC, visiting us on NANUQ.

Carlos and his friends and family have support me in my career since the beginning,more than 20 years ago.
It was such a good surprise seeing them, and being able to show them NANUQ.
It was a quick visit, but we gave them the grand tour and explained some of the features and tasks that we are performing on NANUQ to get her ready for the trip south.


These guys are more than special, you can follow their adventures on their websites:
