Well, if'n I ain't, I SURE ain't gonna admit it here... :-) Actually, was back in ND about two months ago. Got down to 8 degrees or so. Definitely brisk, but certainly standable. Didn't feel much like going flying, though. Buried in my old stuff is some pictures I took, back when flying in the winter in North Dakota. What's amazing about it is not only the snow-covered ground, but that the horizon is a *hard* line. No haze. Ron Wanttaja |

Buried in my old stuff is some pictures I took, back when flying in the
winter in North Dakota. What's amazing about it is not only the snow-covered ground, but that the horizon is a *hard* line. No haze. When I flew in the San Francisco bay area, there was lots of haze from the aerosols, etc, in the air. It was called an "articifical horizon." Ed Wischmeyer |
