Gosh - why SoCal? Most my trips there have featured smog so thick that
it wasn't VFR legal (yet a bright sunny day).

It's a hell of a lot more clear than it was 35 years, ago, in my observation.

Exactly...the enforced smog control and yearly emissions checks required have cleaned up the air substantially. I am
amazed at how bad the air gets here in Michigan! Climb up to 6000' or so and you can see the crud everywhere. Amazing
that smog controls are not enforced all over the country...


In case you have been in a cave the last 30 or so years pollution regulations are in place all across the country.

That's nice...When was the last time you had _your_ car smog checked?
