I spent a springtime as a young USAAF pilot in Amarillo. I remember going out for P.Y. in gym clothes. In the next hour it went from a warm spring day to wind storm, to rain, to hail to sleet to snow. Guess who froze what by the time we got back to the barracks. Conclusion there is nothing between Amarillo and the north pole except a rusty barbed wire fence, ant the gate is open. Not a good day for soaring.

I spent 5 years on active duty in the Air Force and my only foreign duty was Texas. I remember summers in Hondo and Bryan Texas. Neither had comfortable flying weather for either models or real ones in July and August.
