You and Jay will both be flying VFR on Friday, and probably through the
weekend.

IMHO

Hey guys! It's an El Nino year!

Last NOAA said anything about it was in September as being a "weak" El
Nino event predicted through "early 2005"... No press releases since... so
it doesn't seem like it is much of an event, if there is one.


I take that back. I found their latest El Nino discussion:
http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/product...enso_advisory/

It says the West coast Precipitation is NOT consistent with an El Nino
Event, although a weak event does exist and is expected to continue at least
3 more months.

Thought winter time was a La Nina...or is that a northern/southern
hemisphere thing?

El Nina just means that the Equatorial pacific ocean is COLDER than normal,
and El Nino means that it is WARMER. The time of year has nothing to do
with it.

You might have to get the heaters fired up, though :-)

Oshkosh once then realizing you're stuck doing it the rest of your life
but for some strange reason, you really don't care and can 100% justify
the expense involved. :-)

At least it's looking like I'll get to go out for a couple more IA
lessons Thursday and Saturday. Whoo hoo, more hood time! Yes, I love
to look at the panel and work on my scan...all the while trying to hold
heading and altitude. It's fun...in a twisted sort of way.

Are you kidding? It got to a high of about 63 today. Downright cold.
Last
couple weeks has been even nicer, at times. It was 75 and sunny, a couple
days ago.

Don't you hate me now? g

You get yours on Thursday :-)

Get all your flying in, tomorrow.

Allen,
You know it does become an obsession... I din't start off to go to the
airport I just ended up there... How is your airplane search going?
