Bad time of the year to fly around here as well, migratory birds are
on the move.

Not unusual to get advisories from KJAN for radar identified flocks of
birds. Big ones too, geese and pelicans.

KMBO next to a very large reservoir where these things like to
gather. In a month or two, starlings move through, and lines ranging
in the miles for these birds, amazing clouds of these things not to be
reckoned with.

Fully understood on what you say about BAC, but after my overhaul
(happened after an in flight cylinder failure) 5 years ago, pretty
much the maintenance on my bird has been fluids and normal wear and
tear.

This year, all hoses got replaced (5 year old from overhaul), 30 year
brake lines got replaced on my annual, so this year, just a little
more pricey at 5K, but ooooh so worth it. Still cheaper to own, since
I have flown 123.5 hours this year, and 145.9 last year.

Next big project will be interior.
