This spring and early summer has been wierd.  Not a lot of flight info so far 
this spring.  I have been working on the new engine.  I have been getting ready 
to add it to the plane.  The weather here in AZ has been off season.  The 
humidity has been higher than normal and the wind has been active.  3-5  10-15 
in a matter of minutes.  This Saturday I woke up and the wind was breezy, and 
that means that the wind will be higher in the afternoon.  We had a meeting in 
Casa Grande AZ for the EAA Chapter.  The flight down was a good one, even 
thjough I had not flown in 2 months.  We went through a hangar that had some 
interesting planes in it.  I Classic P51d was in for an annual.  I Reno P51 was 
hanging on a rack with the wing off to one side and 4 other planes. One plane 
was a folkwolf 190.  Owned and beig paid by an individual affiliated with 
Microsoft.........  One other plane that is so rare that a engine could not be 
found for it.  1 of 4 was recovered and only 1 will be able to be flown.  
insurance reasons.  Needless to say it was a very good time.  I thought the 
flight home was gong to be real rough, but it was a good time, smooth and fast. 
 After we got back an AT6 took off made a circle and made a low   low low fly
