Corky-
I had made plans to fly to Urbana ever since last year. Had the vacation all blocked
out and the Piet double checked and loaded with clothes and camping gear.
I tried to go Thurs, Fri, Sat, and finally gave up. The weather was terrible
and Urbana always seemed to be inside one of those red boxes that you see now
and then on the weather channel ( meaning SEVERE weather). And I only live in
Cincinnati!!!!
It was the most frustrating three days I've ever spent, being SO eager to do something
that I love and not being able to do it. I can only imagine what it has
been like for you to be sweating out this Sport Pilot thing. Please hang in
there........I want to meet you and see your Piet, as do many others.
I hope that some of this group were able to attend as the SAA is an organization
worthy of support and growth. It would be a shame to see it wither. Any reports
from the field???
Anyway, I'll unpack my stuff and buzz around here for a month or so, then re-do
everything in preparation for Brodhead. Can't wait....
Larry

--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "John Ford" <Jford@indstate.edu>
I just drove home to Terre Haute, Indiana from Toledo, Ohio through that
nasty, nasty weather (Sunday afternoon). At one point the traffic on
I-69 north of Indianapolis was moving 15 mph with all of our flashers on
(trucks too). It was raining so hard and the winds were so strong that
I hate to think what it would have done to a wood and fabric open
cockpit airplane.
