Jay:
The new restaurant in Madison is open (again) and is part of the brand new FBO. The food is typical cholesterol, but a notch better than Janesville. The approach and tower controllers in Madison are also very nice. I was going to go fly the Baron somewhere today, but walking around on the ramp for a few minutes changed my mind- talk about a wimpy fair weather flyer. It was only 2 degrees out with a 15 knot wind, so the appeal of a nice flight dropped dramatically when I opened the car door! Jim N "Jay Honeck" wrote in message news:avHGd.11119$eT5.10550@attbi_s51... and take a quick flight in a gorgeous '67 Arrow. Stay tuned, I just may be a low wing convert as we're planning to make an offer sometime this week. Good luck, Jack! Be careful, don't fall in love with a plane, and use your head instead of your heart when you're negotiating. Easier said than done, I know. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I was going to go fly the Baron somewhere today, but walking around on the
ramp for a few minutes changed my mind- talk about a wimpy fair weather flyer. It was only 2 degrees out with a 15 knot wind, so the appeal of a nice flight dropped dramatically when I opened the car door! I was serious when I said there were ONLY Pipers on the ramp in JVL. I've just about died in Cessna singles and twins in the winter, but Pipers are just toastly. I'll bet your Extra is pretty danged cold at this time of year -- but, wow what a climb rate! I've only flown in Barons in summer -- but I'll bet they have one of those stupid "ultra-reliable" (not!) Janitrol heaters, right? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
