Finally, the cold hard jaws of winter relaxed a little today and was able to take "The Spirit of Camp Lake" up for some much needed air time. The temps were in the low 40s, (felt like a heat wave)and winds out of the west at 8 to 10 visibility was CAVU. 2250' of North South frozen turf permitted the "Spirit" to leap into the sky. After a month or so idleness, it felt great...These moderate cool temps are just great for Coupe performance. Had to hold 2250/2300 rpm just to keep her under 110 IAS and climb was pushing 650FPM. Sure didn't see that last summer. This corner of SE WISC has not seen any snow to speak of, The fronts have gone thru North and South of us and really nailed those of you to the South and East. I shouldn't be speaking too loud cause sure enough we'll get dumped on next.
