There are soybeans too. They must be hidden by the corn. And, on that note, a lesser-known fact of little importance: If you have an engine-out emergency, which field should you choose: Corn or soybean? Answer: Corn. Even if it's 9 feet tall, and the beans are only 9 inches tall, you should still choose the corn. The beans are intensely intertwined, and tightly tangled -- and they will grab at your landing gear and flip you. The corn might wreck your wings, but they won't catch your gear. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

Sorry, but this sounds painful! ;-)

You must of heard this from Roger Clark too. I didn't learn about this or about snow covered runways during my training in Oklahoma. These are some of the things I learned at the Wings seminars in Iowa. -Greg B.
