Mm, yeah, prolly. I remember getting stuck in standing wave and barely
able to hold my altitude some days.

It was sad to fly a Cherokee 180 westbound and watched the trucks pass
me on the Turnpike.

That washboard topography can make for some pretty nasty bumps.

Yes, Middleton, right? I was in and out of there quite a lot over the
yeas. Right past three mile island...

Yep! Middletown, PA -- Three Mile Island cooling towers are 5 mile
final, IIRC.

Used to be an Air Force base. Across the river is Capital City -- much
more GA friendly.
