Our first Washington $100.00 hamburger fly-in of the year was a big BUST. :-( Andy made if off from Arlington like a champ. Marty's airplane broke. Ron & I were preflighted and ready to go but the fog moved back in and we were stuck. While I was waiting for the fog to completely burn off I could see lots of blue sky around the airport and it looked like things might be OK. Then Slim the airport owner who was warming up his Cessna 150 motioned for me to get in and we did a couple of circuits. Solid fog except right at the airport proper. It looked like some one had taken a sharp knife and cut a space out of the fog right around the airport. Well prudence dictated that VFR on top wasn't really very wise, and on top of that the fog was starting to roll back over the field. Ron at least got some of the bird crap washed off his plane, and got to taxi it to the gas pump. I got a ride in a 150, Marty got a broken plane, and Andy got to fly to the coast and have a nice hamberger. Bah humbug Cheers: Paul NC2273H ========================================================================== ==== To leave this forum go to: http://ercoupers.com/lists.htm
