I was listening to the OSH feed on LiveATC this past Sunday afternoon.
The C-54 requested to taxi to Baslers. ATC queried as to the reason. The
response, "We just had our chart sucked out the window, so we need to
get another one."


At least he was honest, an went to get another! g

I've never lost one while on the ground even though my canopy is
usually pulled quite a bit further back... Probably because there is
not enough wind velocity... In the air, on the other hand, I've lost a
few over the years... That's one of the reasons that I don't
necessarily throw away old sectionals... If the current one blows out,
an old one is better than none...

Now, if my LORAN database would just blow out the window so that I
could justify getting an update... grin

So that's where that sectional came from I found on the front lawn!

I picked a sectional up one year, from beside 18 during a departure push.
