Man, the lift is going to be off the charts!


Is the FAA going to open a rapture window to allow those being saved
to climb through 'Class A'? ...which also begs warning of pilots to
keep vigil. Rapturees may not be terribly concerned, but running into
one of them in your ship at high speeds while they are ascending will
certainly cause a problem. It'll probably be a good idea to check the
NOTAMS before launching.

A properly harnessed team of them may be able to provide a free tow as
well, although they don't launch till 6:00pm...

Hope there are no TFRs to foul things up. On the plus side, if we get
intercepted by fighter planes, we can just flip them the bird not having
to worry about any court date.

It's BST, but not British Summer Time!

This is going to play Hell with my contest schedule for the year -
Only one day at the rescheduled Mifflin contest, and Ionia, Cordele,
CCSC, Logan, Uvalde, and Llano are all toast! :-(

Uh oh. I mis-understood. I thought it was RAPTOR. That family of 7
buzzards that live on the field got me thinking it was something
else. Especially when one of them crapped on the tail of one of my
planes last weekend!

I'm going to take an early tow; this thing could go either way.

Just get your glider trimmed good for hands off descending no pilot flight,
would you? It would be a shame if you left while in the air, and your
glider crashed without having a chance for someone else to use it while you
were gone!

This just in from our friends at AOPA. Looks like they are going to
make a day long event out of it. I guess there will be a final mass
takeoff at 18:00. My biggest concern is that after we introduce the
entire planet to the joys of flight, how long will the wait for an
available aircraft be? But maybe the "aviation businesses located at
Frederick Municipal Airport" who are responsible for this, have this
figured out already. And, please, DO NOT forget your photo ID and
leave those banned items (nail clippers, liquids) at home to help our
friends at the TSA process everyone as efficiently as possible.


"Bring the joy of flying to everyone"
People around the world will celebrate the second annual International
Learn to Fly Day on Saturday. As part of the worldwide effort, AOPA,
in conjunction with other aviation businesses located at Frederick
Municipal Airport in Frederick, Md., will host a daylong event
designed to introduce the local community to general aviation
