Bran N/Kolbers:
The Rock House is located about 7 miles south of Burns Junction, Oregon. In the
SE corner of the State, high desert, 4,000 MSL. It is the home of Larry C.
I am loading my MKIII, getting ready to fly east this morning through:
Buhl, ID
Preston, ID
Kemmerer, WY
Rock Springs, WY
Laramie, WY
Goodland, KS
Great Bend, KS
Neosho, MO
Searcy, AR
Tunica, MS
Columbus, MS
Titus, AL
With a little luck I can make it in 3 each 8 hour flight days. More realistically,
will probably take 4 each 6 hour flight days. A few years ago I could make
the 8 hour days easily, but at 73 years old, ain't got as much spunk as I used
to have.
Got about 1,900 sm to fly in 24 flight hours.
Not ready to come home, but it is time. My chores are waiting on me.
Will try to keep you all posted on my progress as computers and time are available.

My dictionary has "John Hauck" as the definition of spunk! You are truly inspiring!

Interesting that the Poles have taken over the carwash industry. By far
most of the motels here are run by Indians. (not Red Indians) Smallies,
and also the big chains - Hilton, Ramada, etc. They do a good job too;
hardworking, honest. I think.
May have a Beneteau 523 to bring up from the VI's in a couple weex. Hope
so. Prolly cooler there than here!
Fair winds,
Russ

through starting the engine when the throttle was open the insurance
Company sent an assessor .It was obvious that the starboard wing had to
be rebuilt. There was some discussion over possible twisting of the cage
due to the backwards movement of the wing. This was decided in
consultation with the Inspector and the cage was condemned. This meant a
total strip of instruments etc and rebuild of the whole front end.
Including the car I managed to drive the nose cone into I think that the
bill was in excess of 20,000 pounds. The insurers paid up with no
quibble.

classed as a `microlight` and we were into a whole new ballgame. We were
a Light Aircraft and therefore outside our insured category

find a use for them. These guys are usually Polish. I know one lot who
are Lithuanians and the guys I used are, would you believe it from Iraq.
