Default GA Flying Down 20%

("Jay Honeck" wrote)
We were the ONLY airplane flying, at either airport. I heard a couple of
planes at distant airports on 122.8 -- but that's it.



I was at our EAA Hangar from noon till 5pm today. We had the doors open and
were out on the cement slab for much of the time ...working (mostly).

I saw:
Four corporate-type jets take off
An OV-1 Mohawk, from American Wings Museum, flew around
A biplane was taxiing - never did see it in the air
Maybe five Cessnas and a Beech flew past our spot

All in all, it was a pretty quiet afternoon. The tower log might prove me
wrong, those are the planes I remember seeing - that's all. Like I said,
quiet.

Across the parking lot from us, this guy was pushed out onto the ramp, for a
little flying time. It never did get into the air, today. Drat.

Yes, I was available for a ride!
