Can't remember what department they were in, but they had 'em. George Patterson He who would distinguish what is true from what is false must have an adequate understanding of truth and falsehood. |

I live in a fairly large city (Indianapolis) and for
the life of me can't find where I can purchase some diapers. googling shows several places that will sell such via mail. I actually use the costco white terry towels and the "box of rags" from Home Depot (these are chopped up pieces of cotten cloth seconds/off cuts). Just make sure their clean and use a lot of water. |

I used to fly at Metro cuz it is close to my house ( 10 minutes). I got
my Private there... Then when I started my Instrument training they jacked their prices up (AGAIN) and I started looking. I ended up out at Indianapolis Executive (Terry) TYQ and I love it there!! I joined Eagle Flyers and flew 172R's for $88.00 an hour instead of $115.00 at Metro. Now we have an open T-hanger for our Mooney for $145.00 a month (try that at Metro). The people at both FBO's are really nice and I still use Metro for Aviaonics work.. Ed is a nice guy... I also like Chris in the Maintenance shop. Metro doesn't allow owner assisted annuals. I don't like that... I have had good luck with the Maintenance shop at Executive. It is handy to jsut call them up and have them go get your plane and perform maintenance..

Am I the only one who uses Pledge furniture polish and terry cloth on my
windscreen? Gets the bugs off nicely and wow, what a shine! Seriously though, everyone I know uses these.. Dennis MyAirpane.com "Jon Kraus" wrote in message ...

In reference to the question of diapers! They are great but, About 10
years ago an old timer gaive me this advice. Use Bounty paper towels. NOTE: The Bounty towels with 'MICROWAVE SAFE" on them. He told me that they do not contain any metal that would conflict with the microwave. I have used them exclusively all this time with WINDEX and am satisfied with the results. Works for me!
