Default Keeping the Hangar Clear of Snow

Ah, grasshopper, you need to consider Northern California or Southern Oregon
for your nirvana. Four full seasons, much rain, little snow, much summer
sun, little winter chill below freezing.

My eyes
just crave the intense green of spring in the Midwest, after a week in the
desert.

But after summer, what other seasons does Hawaii have?

Problem is -- there aren't very many airplanes in Hawaii. It is also one
of the most GA-unfriendly states in the US.

Or Hawaii.

I'd sure need some looooong-range tanks on our Pathfinder to be able to fly
anywhere!

You can fly around the island you are on. Every island has at least one
airport. Oahu, Maui and Hawaii have several. And you can fly from
island to island. But once you do all that, there isn't much of
anywhere else you can fly that is within range. Nothing at all for
thousands of miles (well there is Midway, with one airport).

My sister lives on Oahu and she has neither heat nor air conditioning
in her house. It's a nice climate, and a lot of variety (desert,
jungle, mountains and beaches), but there is NO PLACE TO GO. I get
island fever. Also, aluminum corrodes something fierce over there. My
sisters window frames all have white aluminum dust on the bottom
tracks. It's scary to think what would happen to an aluminum plane in
that environment. There are, however, some GA aircraft and at least
three flight schools in the state.

The topic was keeping the hangar clear of snow. In Hawaii this isn't a
problem.

Except perhaps black snow ... but I guess that isn't freezing ;-)
