now... If that would be a sharp-looking Cherokee 180, your partner is safely ensconced in our honeymoon suite -- the Pan Am Clipper Suite -- for the night. He is NOT roughing it... :-) -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I was watching the new tonight and saw those storms. I hope they are not
near you Thanks, Jerry. We TRIED to fly to Pinckneyville today, for the rec.aviation cookout/party, during a brief window of nice flying weather... We got about 30 miles south when the weather fell apart, again. When we saw the towering cumulus stretching wall-to-wall in the distance, we reluctantly turned back. Good thing, too -- we would NEVER have made it back tonight.... Weird weather. We've had a warm front draped over us for several days. One minute it's hot and humid, the next minute it's cold and blustery. It has switched back and forth half a dozen times, interspersed with heavy rains, thunderstorms, and high winds... :-( -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Last week I had to leave my plane in phoenix (FFZ), I was checking the weather
and as the winds at my destination were getting higher, weathertap.com was showing 25 gusting to 30 about 30 degrees off the runway, not to bad but I needed current winds for a decision so I called the tower and was told they just saw sustained winds at 41 mph which for me, was an automatic no-go, so I had to leave my baby. driving back to phoenix next sunday, Hope no one messes with her.

Hangers are for sale at Pegasus Air Park (right next to Queen Creek.)
$58K per if I remember correct. (Not a lease a real sale.) Closer than FFZ, you'll never get a hanger at FFZ as the wait list is over 10 years old. My parents live in Queen Creek, right against the base of the San Tan Mountains. Bart D.
