We TRIED to fly to Pinckneyville today, for the rec.aviation cookout/party, during a brief window of nice flying weather... We got about 30 miles south when the weather fell apart, again. When we saw the towering cumulus stretching wall-to-wall in the distance, we reluctantly turned back. :^( That's a shame; you missed some great lasagna and a chance to fly John's Stinson Reliant. Maybe next year! -- Dan C172RG at BFM |

Stinson Reliant. Maybe next year! One of these years. The weather can't ALWAYS suck on that weekend, can it? Although, in honesty, in the past it's been scheduling problems that kept us away -- usually U of Iowa graduation. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

I was driving through northern Iowa Friday evening near Bradgate. I just
missed the tornado that wiped out that town by a few minutes. I saw the big wall cloud to the west as I was driving south. I got to Humboldt just before the storm sirens started there. I went out to the Humboldt airport Saturday when the weather was good to see if there was anyone around that I could bum a ride to get a chance to see the damage from the air. No luck. I found out later that N91RA (Citabria) was flying around the Rolfe and Bradgate area. If I had known he was down there, I could have talked him into a ride. -Greg B.
