Someone showed me that there may be a window through all this water in the air, if I wait til Friday, so that is what I am going to do. Then if it does not work out, I will have a long drive for a short visit, but it will be worth it if I get to fly to the Gathering again this year. The forcast

So, could I deduce from that, that if your oil temps are too cool, 20 - 50 might be a good thing? Thanks for the info. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the picsĀ  See you at the 2009 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Ill There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time
