Chuck if you really want to get the guys from the south envious you should show them a picture of you shoveling your car out on the way to your airport.

Came home from holidays with family to 2.5 feet of the white stuff in the driveway with 3.5 feet of snow at the end of the driveway. Glad we have snow it can stop anytime now. Time to fire up the snow blower.

Happy New Years to all.

About the best thing I can say for it, you might do your condition inspection in the winter.

That's exactly what I did, let my conditional lapse until I moved it to Dec. I do inspections all year long so my conditional is short and sweet. I do have to remove the Tail this year,takes me 20 min. I will find all to be just as it was the last time I looked at it, the same as it was 4 years ago. I have to replace push rod seals this time around. It is slipping down to 28 deg tonight and will have a high of 50 deg tomarrow, but it will be clear..........Dan
