Default Learning from an owner annual

The thought of missing OSH because of something stupid like waiting for a
part has caused us to actually move the annual UP a month this year, just
to get it safely back into the bad flying weather of March.



One word: Courtesy van!

We drove into OSH from 1984 through 1998. Nothing against it, but it's
just not the same as flying and camping in the middle of 12,000 other
aircraft campers.

THAT is OSH, to me, now. The airshows and stuff are still fun, but the
North 40 is what grass-roots aviation is all about. So, we try to
make sure that Atlas is in tip-top shape every July, for that long, 90
minute flight back to Wittman Field...
