Hi Roger!

And Iowa City Update:

Larry is no longer actively instructing -- although he keeps his CFI ticket
fresh. I'll be going up with him for my biennial, if I can get ahold of
him.

Jen no longer works at the airport, either. She was always a breath of
fresh air, but had a falling out with the current management.

Dumb-ass King Airs are still a problem here once in a while. Having flown
one recently -- and discovered that they cost $15 bucks a MINUTE to
operate -- I now have a new understanding for their incredible impatience
(rudeness?) in the pattern.

Whatcha doing in Utah?

Wow, someone from my home town, Iowa City!

I wonder if Larry Kleinmeyer(my first instructor) is still teaching, and
if
Jen is still working there.

I remember my first solo there.... I was on short final, rwy 30, when a
smart-ass King Air decided to sneak-in and take off before me, when I had
already announced a touch-and-go. I made a novice mistake and followed
that
king air in to a wicked wake turbulence, flipping over around 90 degrees
left and right within less than a second, probably only about100ft over
Wallmart...

Yessirree... I learned my wake turbulence alright. Since that day, my
first
solo, WT was on my mind on every single landings and take-offs ever since.

Greetings from Salt Lake City!

Forgive me fellow fliers for I have sinned. It had been over 6 months
since
I have flown...

You are forgiven, my son.

For your penance, you must say 3 Hail Marys, 4 Our Fathers, and complete
6
circuits around the pattern without giggling.
