Time is approaching for that big trip to OSH.

This year looks very active thunderstorm season.  I can't time the  "wave 
action" that these CBs move with, but you can bet we'll most  likely see them 
while we're en route to and at OSH.  I hope I am  wrong.

Remember to bring your own tie-downs (rope and stake).  These and  control 
locks are very cheap insurance.  It does not take much wind to  damage a loose

control.  

En route you 396/496 guys will have it made BUT still stay well  clear.  In 
the airline industry we were always advise to clear a CB by  10nm.  Fear of 
lighting would you think?  There is that tendency to  think that 10 nm is a bit

much, but I've personally witness a cloud to cloud  strike, that easily was 
that distance.  Remember, lighting isn't hit you  personally - you just happened

to make it easier for it to go to ground.

Starting to plan my flight.  Looking forward to it and seeing yawl up  there.
