Weird Experience #1,113
So I run over to the hangar yesterday to pick up some stuff for the
hotel, and I hear an airplane go over. I look up to see "The Mighty 150" struggling to climb in the thick, humid summer air. I smile, and then freeze, as I snatch a glance at my watch. That's my boy up there, on his fifth lesson. The kid I taught to bait a hook and ride a bike is hovering nearly motionless in the heat, struggling to climb as he works to master the vagaries of a crosswind landing. I shiver, and move on. Damn, time flies. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"
