Toni Guttman flies N10301 from Florida to California

I bought Mite N10301 from David Skipper of Ocala, Florida, early in the summer of 2000 and flew it home to California in two stages. First I brought the plane to Boyd Maddox in Houston, Texas, so he could check it over and make a few small changes. Later, I flew it the rest of the way to Frazier Lake, California. These are some pictures I took along the way.
