Yeah, unfortunately it worked out best to drive this time. I did put
2.6 hours on the P-3 today after returning to Ohio, we had some of the
great weather here that Iowa has been having for the last few days. I'm
slowly getting to all of the airports in Ohio. So far I've got roughly
70 covered with a lot left to go.


Just think -- you "flew" Version 1.0 of "the Kiwi". By this time next
week, we'll have Version 2.0 up and running, with a second video screen
and 10-times the processing power! You'll have to come back, soon.


Send pictures out as soon as you get the second monitor running.

If I've ever got the Pilatus over to Iowa, you and Mary are welcome to
rides,We're gonna hold you to that!



I'll have to try to get over for the airshow in Iowa City next Summer
(schedule permitting).

Thanks,
