Hi all,

The annual flyin is coming up again May 21, 22, and 23. Come on down to
Pinckneyville ( KPJY) and hang out in John's hangar! Fly all day and fly
the hangar all night.

Stella and I will be there by Friday evening even if the Rain God
****es on us like last year and we have to drive again.

What's the difference between a Fairy Tale and A Flying Tale?

A Fairy Tale begins "Once upon a time..."

A Flying Tale begins "No ****, this is a true story..."

John, John, John... I flew in from Minneapolis, VFR no less, and you had
to drive from Des Moines? What's up with that? :-)

Tall people get nervous scud-running. Too much negative conditioning bumping
their heads, a problem I've never had. (John is roughly 1.7 Stellas in height)

OTOH, after a day driving under the overcast, we arrived just in time for the
clouds to clear and watched the lunar eclipse from Highflyer's hangar!

The last moment the skies were clear for about a week, it seemed...

Yeah, but how do the aspect ratios compare? :-)

Hey, John, looking at the forecast it appears like you've ordered up the
traditional stationary front to the north of the fly-in again all
weekend. Right between me and there. How do you manage to get it
consistently on that weekend every year? :-)
