If you need it, I have one of those 12x12 freestanding canopies that
you would be welcome to borrow. Thinkin' about it, I also have a pull
behind charcoal/gas grill that you could use if you wish.
I need to go to North Liberty tomorrow, so I could drop it/them off if
you want.


Thanks for the offer, man! But we JUST finished erecting our NEW and
IMPROVED gazebo, and our gas grill is poolside and ready to go!

Are you coming down for the shin-dig?

I'll bet you didn't open a flight plan for the gazebo. Plus, I'll bet it
was NORDO, and few a straight-in approach to the fence.


Worse, ATC vectored it there -- and then cut it loose into Class D airspace!

Plus non TSO equipment, logbooks not up to date, no current annual, and
insufficient preflight inspection...
tsk tsk... at least a 90 day suspension...

Yes, our poolside gazebo actually went AIRBORNE, flying completely over

the
pool and into the fence beyond, where it thankfully stopped before

hitting
the parked cars on the other side.


Hmm.
