Wife and I flew a Cub from Kokomo to Noblesville yesterday with a
stiff South wind. Made 37 knots ground speed down, 92 back. Woulda
been faster to drive, but not nearly as fun.


You live in Kokomo? In the '70's I flew KC135's out of Grissom AFB. We
lived in Cassville, about halfway between Kokomo and Grissom.


My wife's parents will be coming to visit after xmas. I'm hoping the
weather cooperates and I can take my father-in-law for a spin in the Cub
or Champ. He'll get a kick out of overflying Grissom if they have the
tankers out on the ramp.

Cool. Have fun. I didn't realize there were still 135's there. When I
left the National Guard was flying A-37's and they were talking about
shutting down the base. But, I've been out of the loop for the last 30
years or so. :)
