NetHeads,

OK, here's my contribution for flight reports 
today...http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/flights/061103100m.jpg .  This is 
what passes for fall foliage colors and rolling hills in southern Tennessee. 
I flew up to visit Troy Petteway at Columbia, then came back and did ten 
touch-n-goes for good measure.  I also got to watch a couple of cotton 
pickers work on a field that must have been two miles long.  Interesting 
stuff.  I found the field by wondering where I'd go if the engine crapped 
out.

I analyzed a little data from a flight last week, and determined my glide 
ratio is really 11.4:1 rather than 13.5:1 as determined earlier.  I have 
pretty good confidence in the 11.4:1 number...
