But I suspect Jones is just bent out of shape because he doesn't have very friendly sheep up there in Wisconsin...the best he can do is attract wild deer! Or maybe it's because he missed the antique British car show last Monday at Popham field. Check out http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/andover/car_show/ , if you're up for another trip to England and have a few minutes to kill. I got in another two hours of flying today, although most of it had to be done above the cloud deck. I did a few lean-of-peak experiments, slow flight, and practiced IFR techniques, as well as a few touch-and-goes. The Vair is smooth as ever. Tomorrow the winds will be high, but next week is supposed to be sunny, at least, but probably no great sunsets...
