OK, I didn't make it to Lawrence but I did fly from Clovis, NM to Houston a
week ago to be able to take my bride to the fly-in. Weather did us poorly so
we couldn't fly to KS. I just made it back to Clovis, my home away from
home.
On my takeoff roll, I noticed a low airspeed indication. My plane sat
outside one night during the torrential rains a week ago so I'm guessing I
have some moisture in the pitot system. The static seems fine with good
altimeter readings. Also, both static ports have a loop upwards to keep
water from coming in. I have a mechanical and a digital ASI and both agree
with each other but read extremely high or extremely low (or about right at
times). Now that I'm back in the high desert with nowhere to go for a few
days, I'm going to see if it simply dries out by itself.

Back in ABQ (KAEG). Landed mid-afternoon and had my first chip with salsa
within 45 minutes. It was great to see everyone; thanks Greg and Donna for
all the work putting things together!
