You're right Buly. But, after several very exciting
encounters with low ceilings, 20 minutes in icy IMC conditions and encountering
a squall line in Louisiana that took a few years off my youth, - I
repeatedly made promises to never, never get into similar situations
again - I'm not going to - not even for pizza {:>)
Yeah, Scott lives about 30 miles west of me and the
ceilings lifter from west to east, I guess I'm not living right, but then we
really needed the rain.
Glad enough made if for a good turn out.

Turnout
Ed, you just plain chickened out :) Your neighbor flew in with
his C-152 ? Even I made it. Your piece of pizza was very good.

Just go off the phone with Laura Crook, appears a
good crowd made it to Shady Bend with 5 rotary powered aircraft showing
up. Low ceilings precluded me taking off for the last 3 days. I
thought I would make it today, but the ceilings just hung around until
around 1330. Too late to launch, sigh!
There are apparently 5 rotary powered aircraft
there with Dave Lenoard taking the award for longest flight (from West
Coast), Rich is there with Rusty's old Rv-3.
Max Lassacher out of New York with a rotary
powered Falcon-air and I were both planning on being there but the weather
cnx us out.
Well, always next year.
Hopefully someone there will give us a full up
report
