Early Friday morning a fleet of vehicles headed south on Hwy
75, our first stop was to meet Tim Bloomquist and his Fishers. Tim, family and
friends greeted us warmly and after a fantastic meal of Joe’s Sloppy Joe’s surrounded
by airplane parts we walked over to another building filled with airplanes:
a. a
Maranda Falconer and
b. four different types of Fishers, including a Fisher Super
Koala!
We were able to see the Fisher’s plywood clad construction and the
unique wooden latticework covering the wings. It was fascinating to learn that
the latticework is a substitute for drag and anti-drag wires.
