Winter

[Wayne Galligan]

I know that feeling all to well as I lived in the frigid confines of
northern Iowa years ago...  you could get some serious building done in the
winter months. Then I got to Texas as fast as I could and not regretting it
one moment.  But you are right about the changes.  Here I am building and
flying at the same time seems.  Two planes ready for next year now so I
knock on wood all I have to do this winter,spring,summer,fall is fly...
heh! heh!  (no bad feelings at all)

I feel bad for you "year round" flyers.  Not sure how you stay "excited"
about the sport.  In this neck of the woods (Cleveland) we have a pretty
even split...6 months of building, 6 months of flying.  Without it, I'd have
been burnt out years ago.

As it is now...come September, October...I'm tired of dragging the plane to
the field...and start to get an itch to clean the workshop, and embark on a
new project (This year is ambitious for me...2 35% IMAC planes, Painting a
new all composite Pattern plane, some comprehensive repairs, and a new
trainer for my son (building from scratch with a 7 year old is ambitious all
by itself))

Come April..and the Toledo show...The desire to get out and fly is almost
overwhelming.  I get to start the season with a whole new lust for the
sport.

On days like today...cold, windy, dreary...I'm jealous.  But in general,
I'll keep changing seasons...and changing hobbies :):):)

Michael,

 Sunday, 65 degrees light winds.  6 flights... two on the Entropy and 4 on
the Aries... plenty of fuel... ran out of daylight.

Winter has been here for a while now.  I have about 44 inches of snow on
the ground and it was a balmy -17F when I left for work.  In the center of
the state it was a little cold at -60F.  Ahhh cant wait for spring.  Come
on May.
