Finally -- sunshine!
After weeks and weeks of clag, freezing rain, snow, sleet, and low ceilings,
the sun is finally beaming down brightly upon Iowa ....but the winds are 28 knots, gusting higher... ....and are not aligned with any runways... ....which are ice covered... ....and the temperature is plummeting... ARRGGGGHHHH! Had the day off, too... :-( -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

Still snowing in Chicago (TAF last night was for 5000 broken :-( - TAFS
seem to be pure guesswork lately) but forecast to clear overnight so I hope I can fly to DuPage for my annual. Bitter cold, so I'll probably have to preheat for 2 hours first - At least great performance on takeoff.

Oh, you want sunshine *and* cooperative winds? Man, some people! :-)
Hang in there Jay, you'll get some better weather sometime before Oshkosh this year :-) We're finally drying out from all the rain...now, it's foggy in the mornings. Should be fun as I head out to the airport tonight and Saturday for more instrument lessons. -- Jack Allison PP-ASEL, IA Student, airplane partnership student "When once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the Earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return" - Leonardo Da Vinci (Remove the obvious from address to reply via e-mail)
