When we left Iowa the temperature was a chilly 14 degrees... When we
landed in Florida, it was 80. Sure felt good...



Welcome back to March snowstorm land.

Of course, due to inclement weather and a minor mechanical problem that
caused my first-ever emergency landing (which turned out to be fouled
plugs, thanks to running that awful 100 LL through Atlas' veins -- GOD I
hate that crap), it took us two full days (but just 9 hours of flight
time) to get home, but what the heck.... That's just part of the fun of
flying your own plane -- you're never quite sure where you'll be spending
the night.



Is there a different power setting technique you could use when forced to
drink that stuff? Would it matter? If it's worked in the past, what do you
think was different this time?

Looking forward to the pics on your site - after you get through your
e-mails.
