All you would have had to do is be an airport bum at pearson and evergreen
and you would have herd a lot. Speaking of evergreen you read the artical
that the buyers backed out fo the sale!


Yeah. They shut down the airstrip in a hellfire hurry to develop, and now
they can't find anybody to develop it.

Freakin' brilliant. The buyers ought to be fined.

Did you go flying the other day? I drove by the field on the way home and
saw an aluminum and red AT-6 racing around the pattern a little while after
I talked to you.

By the way I read one of the interviews with Wiley where he asks "What's the
first and second most important things about flying IFR."
That recalled the beginning of a very long day; it was the first question he
asked me for the Instrument oral, before we went up to do the checkride in
IMC. (I got put into a 20 minute holding pattern at Glara, I think it was,
in IMC. When we got back, he pulled out his handheld GPS and said "Let's
take a look at your hold." We looked at the display and I said, "Well, I'm
not sure how a kitten got in your GPS, but he sure made a mess of my flight
track...")

1. Aviate?
2. Navigate?

I like that answer! His answer was "The next two things."
