Been around since it was telnet and before that tty, and I have always top
posted so that the first thing the reader views is the new information... If he is too brain dead to remember what has been posted prior, he is free to read on down or search the archives... Denny - awk grep nnnn "Paul Tomblin" wrote in message ... In a previous article, "Steve House" said: |

![]() "Steve House" wrote in message ... It sure seems like OE users top-post by default. Because OE bottom quotes by default. I It doesn't bottom quote at all. The only thing it does differently is that it leaves the cursor at the top of the window, so you have to hit SHIFT-END to move to the bottom before you start typing. Top posting vs bottom posting wouldn't be an issue at all if people wouldn't be so stupid as to include the entire article they are following up. |

Pretty good observation of local weather phenomenon in Ohio.
Our aviation state motto could be, "Welcome to the convergence zone! Where west meets east and north greets south. Where Bermuda High's stall the North Plains Low's." One of Duane Coles early books mentions the more common local conditions he met during his years as an airshow pilot, ferrying his Tayolorcraft across the country. The one that sticks out in my mind is the line between snow/freezing rain/rain that exists about Fort Wayne Indianna. Personally, I have also learned that a low pressure system moving northeast out of the Gulf of Mexico will either track up the east side or the west side of the Appalachian Mountains. Depending on which side it moves up will determine the best route to fly between the North Coast and the South Coast. Lake Erie presents some interesting contrasts between Lake Huron and Lake Ontario. The Lakes make their own local weather phenomenon. Of course the weather patterns we have been experiencing this year have added a whole tome to how to fly anywhere east of the Mississippi. |

Pretty good observation of local weather phenomenon in Ohio. Our aviation state motto could be, "Welcome to the convergence zone! Yeah, but it all spills into PA with alarming regularity. We were headed from Western NJ to Gettysburg last Sunday when we ran into multi-layered hazy scud at Lancaster. Made it to Gettysburg okay, ate breakfast and looked up to see convective stuff starting on the boil overhead. High-tailed it out of there and ran back into lovely weather at Lancaster. I've been made concerned or turned back a half-dozen times by such stuff on a summer's day in Central PA, when the Western 1/3 of the state has been just fine. Greg |

The Central PA mountains are another local weather maker which inhibit east-west flight. The mountains have claimed many an aircraft and unwary pilot. IFR, VFR or doesn't it matter? I was flying IFR over PA yesterday afternoon at 8,000ft, above a solid layer and was listening to several VFR pilots talking to Harrisburg Approach about quickly deteriorating weather. A few tried to get pop-up IFR clearances but were temporarily denied, while others were doing 180s and trying to find nearby airports in which to land. It did not sound pleasant. -- Peter |

Someone told me they have aerobatics displays and stuff at the show - is
that true? You're kidding, right Dan? They have one of the best damned airshows you'll ever see -- every day, for a week! ![]() -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
