Default 5 Canceled Flights in a Row

Jay,

We've been forced to cancel 5 scenic
airplane rides in a row, over the last week, due to high winds, low
ceilings, and bad visibility.


Hey! I thought you had the statistics to prove this never happens

Well, we've apparently used up our 5.2% IFR for the entire next
year...

;-)

Actually, the conditions here have been VFR much of the time -- but
who the heck wants to go on a "scenic" airplane ride with winds
gusting to 49 knots?
