Still there were things that the experience gave me: solid IFR skills and
excellent airmanship. That's not bragging... it's just what I had to have
to survive. We all had it. I can remember reading the morning paper
while enroute in solid IFR to RDU. No copilot; no autopilot. Just me and
smooth air. Never had the guts to try to read while in turbulence....


I've seen freight dogs at BFM land out of or take off into a NEXRAD picture
that looks like a basket of Easter eggs.

Takes a lot bigger cojones than I've got to fly light freight.
