Smith field is SMD. Some N numbers - 757RN (Raunchy Nasty), 89373, both C152s, 80519 C172, the destination is Skenk, I think that was a grass strip, 9352T looks like PA-38 112, that must be the Piper Traumahawk (I spelled that right). That plane tried to kill me and a panicky instructor. I was doing a check ride to let them know I was OK to fly their precious airplane and the engine started acting up. The only way the engine would run halfway right was with the carb heat on. Mr. know-it-all wouldn't let me run with it on, ended up landing back at SMD dead-stick.
Looks like I took my check ride on 26Aug1990 in N89373 out of Auburn (07C). 1.2 engine hours, 0.3 hrs under the hood. 4 takeoffs, 4 landings. FAA examiner's number was GL-18-4.
