Yes, thank you, Jay!
For the first time in three months, I was able to once again become
airborne. I even invited my friend with the dislocated shoulder from two
weeks ago, along.
We had to wait about an hour for the fog to burn off, though.
The 1000 ET ATIS Special was 1 mile, temp 0C/dew point -2C.
By 1045 the weather was up to 4 miles, temp 2C/dew point -3C.
The top of the haze layer was low (1000AGL) and the air above was smooth
and clear. We flew from Ohio State/Don Scott (KOSU) to Carrol
County/Tolson (KTSO).
We wanted to go to the Amish restaurant, but there was a sign posted
stating that they are closed JAN/FEB/MAR. Bummer.
Instead, we ate at the airport restaurant. The food was good and we
lingered for an hour-and-a-half.
Lots of people had the same idea. The last time most of us were out was
to inspect the floods last month.
My friend flew back. This was to be a test as her left arm was the one
that got dislocated. As long as she could support her arm on her leg,
she could fly. She even made a real good landing upon returning to Don
Scott.
It was a glorious day!
