now all the hypotheses about leaving on time and in the

FBO (the nice folks from whom you buy fuel had decided to

Listen, all, I'm not trying to say that it will work all the time for
everyone. But ya' gotta' try, IMHO.

Lots of folks keep at least half tanks all the time, right? That ought to
get you 60 to 100 miles, for any plane, right?

My whole thing is to get the home stuff done early, when it looks like you
*might* be in harm's way. At the end, if you are lined up for a hit, take
the short flight. It still ought to get you more safe, if you stay away, or
decide to drive back.

For each his own. Unless we get another Hugo, I'm safe, for now. If I was
living in a danger zone, part of my preparedness plan would involve moving
the plane. That's me, perhaps not you. My final words.
