The rest of you get your butts to Iowa, and enjoy a cookout with (*gasp*!)
FREE BEER


Jay, I'm tempted to fly all the way out there from PA just for the
free beer, but first, I want to know, what kind of beer are you
serving?

And is the a "designated pilot" there to fly me back?

the last few days our weather has been nasty here in Lost Vegas, lighting, wind,
some rain here and there. friday afternoon they shut down the north las vegas
airport for a few hours because of high winds (excess of 45 mph what the news
said)..

The prog charts from the west look a little dicey, but the precip should be
that "high-summer-popcorn" variety -- easy to pick your way through, and not
too bumpy up high. For those of you coming from CA, AZ, and all points
west, please try to keep us informed of your ETA...

The rest of you get your butts to Iowa, and enjoy a cookout with (*gasp*!)
FREE BEER (soft drinks for Larry, if desired... and food for all who fly
in!

(And we've got the "lifter" up and running. It is already amazing and
scaring all who see it fly...

The identifier is IOW. If we were any closer to RWY 25, we'd bust their
airspace. Be there!

Looking at the weather radar loop doesn't look good at the moment on I-80
across Iowa. Looks like I won't be flying down. :-(

If I can get organized, I may drive down this afternoon. Hope it clears up
later!

Hey -- it's only liquid sunshine!

We've already got a couple of guys here from New Zealand, a couple of guys
from California (in two Ercoupes, no less!), and one from western Iowa who
arrived last night. This crud is going to blow on through, and then we'll
be on the backside of a nice, MUCH less humid airmass...

Right now it's VFR here, but there's one more line coming through. Should
be outta here by party time!

The beer will be "Killian's Irish Red" -- in a barrel


I've tasted only the bottled version, but that's not a bad choice.

made nowadays in Golden, CO. No doubt by the Coors family.


Yes, but also in other places by other breweries, IIRC.

And is there a "designated pilot" there to fly me back?


Depends. What are you flying?


Warrior.

Hope you had a good party!
