Default To Nevada in an Aztec

Jay... Welcome to Lo$t Vega$, Our glider club is only open on weekends, do
if you are here next Saturday I'll be busy in the tow plane (if it gets out
of annual).

We just had our biggest storm of the winter pass through.. post frontal
conditions in LAS today.. you'll have to face that stuff around ABQ unless
it has moved farther north.

Enjoy the trip past the BIG DITCH (Grand Canyon), and there was a nice
airplane museum at Valley airport (between GrandCanyon Airport and I-40)

A side trip through Sedona for lunch on the way back east might be nice.

Well, we're off to Lost Wages in an hour or two, flying with Jim & Tami
Burns in their lovely Aztec for a week of R&R.

Dang weather looks like crap out West, so we might only make Albuquerque
tonight. We'll be glad to have that extra whirly thing out on the wing
when crossing the mountains, for sure. Not to mention having every
electronic weather/navigational gizmo on board, as well as a CFII pilot at
the helm.

It's just a walk in the park, Komanski... ;-)

I suspect we'll have some stories and pix to share with y'all when we get
back. Hold down the fort!
