Back when I used to fly formation with some friends in L-birds, we would
meet early on Sunday mornings to brief. We would occassionally notice a
rising column of black smoke on the horizon. The fellow who owned the
airstrip told us it was one of the local companies. They always burned
things on the weekend because they knew the EPA had the weekends off.


You're kidding!


Wel, the only thing I ever did was I spotted a ship with a long slick
trailing. We went out and circled it ( I asked the pax to all observe so
they could be wintesses.) We told ATC and i believe they notified the Coast
Guard. I never found out.
