I will be visiting Iowa City soon and was wondering if anyone knew of a

good
aviation themed hotel in that area?

Thanks
Bobbus



There's a nice Holiday Inn.........

Just kidding Jay.

No sane person would ever visit Iowa City.

Well, that certainly explains your visit, Ron!

I heard the tires on the trailer didn't touch the ground going through Iowa the
second time. :-)

Great discoveries are not announced with "Eureka!". What's usually said is
"Hummmmm... That's interesting...."

I was wondering how long until someone noticed that.
Thank God you have me to kick around, no sane person would tolerate it!

Yep, we dropped in on Jay the first time through (when the trailer was empty).
I'm not sure about any place where it took us an hour of driving around to find
a beer.

You'd think that Jay would know how to find his own house! :-)

Well, flying there does require an airplane capable of getting off the
ground. Hey, there's a great lead in for a Ron/Margie question: What's the
latest on the Navion?

....ducking...

Well, we don't generally cater well to the *drive*-in crowd... ;-)

What's the latest on the Navion? Gonna make OSH '04?

They've ripped out my old panel and I am supposedly getting the cad drawings
of the new panel this week. After I approve that, they'll have it cut and put the
rest of it back together. After that it's interior and paint and I should be able
to fly it back home to have the new radios put in.
