I saw a PIREP on ADDS from FL000, vicinity of CLS (Chehalis, WA). It
reported ice pellets. The remarks section was "in car on I-5". I think these
things are fairly frequent.

what' the altitude of CLS? Also what type of airplane? Maybe it was a
"Ford type-unk" I guess now you can say Honda too.

Kind of like when I was shopping for a car I was at an Audi dealer where
they also carried Porsches. The guy asked me if I was looking to buy a
Porsche. I said, "Just looking but not to buy. I'd buy a lancair
before Porsche though." He looked at me and said, "You'd buy a
Lancer." I corrected him by saying, "Well the one I want has only
3 small wheels but cruises will cruise at 220 mph and for most of
the trip you never have to even touch the wheel."
