| Subject: | Piets flying on Saturday over Ohio |
Just got off the phone with Shad Bell and I'm going to fly over to meet
him at Lorain County Airport this AM as he had the same
idea as I had----fly along the Lake Erie shoreline, maybe hop the Lake
Erie Islands, and otherwise take advantage of this summer-like
weekend before Ohio turns to blizzards, icy roads, fender benders, and
fireplace season.
They are calling for severe clear, light winds, mid 70's. This will be
the THIRD weekend in a row that two or more Piets have gathered.
Three (well 2.5) were at the Lee Bottom Fly In in southern Indiana and
then Shad was with mine at my home base last weekend
and now today we'll at least be present together at one airport. Hot
dog !
Mike C.

Mike, Boys, and Berries,- I had a blast today flying the pile of sawdust
and glue and house paint (even if the experts say one of the -the cross b
race wires are playing the wrong tune ha ha ha).- I did not find out if c
orvair engines float, or wooden airplanes for that matter.- I met Mike Cu
y (Guy?) at Lorain Co airport and got to fly some formation with the famous
Aircamper many of you have vidios of.- We both got some air to air photo
s, and I got a good one of him peeling off with the smoke on.- I put abou
t 3-4 hrs and 200+ miles on the old piet today, from Cleveland to Sandusky
to Put in bay out on South Bass Island on lake erie, then back to land lovi
ng Centerburg Ohio.- The weather was great, severe clear, with a bit of a
steady wind (always a headwind).- What better way to enjoy God's Green (
red, yellow, and orange in the fall)-Earth than from 1000agl in an open c
ockpit with the sun on your-head and the wind in your face.- Mike, I ho
pe
your return trip was just as well.- It is always good to meet up with go
od company between Brodhead and Brodhead.- I am a computer idiot and don'
t know how to post photos on the list so I will email them to Mike and mayb
e he can post them.- Sorry to be long winded so I'm signen off.
