Real briefly...

The weather curse of recent years lifted finally. Gorgeous weather,
temps in the 70s, cloud cover varying between clear and high scattered
to broken. No groundloops yet, but then the Stearman and Waco brigades
haven't shown up. Rumor has it that a truly new experience for the
fly-in occurred right over the numbers on RWY 36 last night. Something
involving an indecent, or at least inexplicable, proposition...

Please tell me Oyster didn't go out there with his pet goat.... I knew
there was a reason he always kept a pair of high rubber boots with the goat.

Dagnabit!!! so _many_ opportunities for a smart-ass follow-up:

1) ... ending a sentence with a proposition.

2) ... doing it on the numbers, if not by the numbers.

3) ... founding the 'zero AGL club', to complement 'mile high' membership.

4) ... rumor mill says there's a movie in the works -- 'runway bride'

5) ... in daylight it's "runway three-six", at night it's "oh, oh, ohhhhhh..."

ROTFL!
It was LAST year that it was just a proposition.
What kind of flowers go with asphalt?

"living dangerously", too. Using the wrong end of the runway like that.
At the far end, at least there would have been assurance that all the
participants were "over 18".

Since Dylan Smith returned from across the pond, can we call it an
international fly-in?
