no aerotow at MEV today due to fire

the airport manager shut down aerotow this morning at 10am; no other
operations were impacted. High Country is at Ely currently, and Soar
Minden has but one tow plane, so aerotow capability is already limited.
they've negotiated a temporary agreement for the duration of the fire,
but it limits the number of launches per hour. in any case, based on
what happens with the fire, aerotowing could be closed again any time.
a temporary tower arrived this morning. they've got 3 P-3s operating, 2
spotter planes, and 6 helicopters.
