How I wish I could go on a holiday vacation aboard a private plane like your Piper Lance.

Pitot heat worked well and the moisture stayed fluid! At least the temps we rising with altitude! I'm so used to dodging thunderstorms, it's been strange having to focus a lot of pre planning and flying focused on icing. The harder part has been trying to find ways to plug in my preheater at the FBOs!Geoff Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11770451787423219919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441161407356046719.post-39809835731459618492012-12-29T15:41:53.920-05:002012-12-29T15:41:53.920-05:00How much does a load of snow flown to FL cost?

Mary is getting a little better so I hope 2013 has us trying new places and things! As for Ice, I think that scares me more than thunderstorms; not going anywhere near it! Now if I could just find the kids some sow to play in, that would be great.Geoff Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11770451787423219919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8441161407356046719.post-61134458011930823622012-12-22T10:37:25.295-05:002012-12-22T10:37:25.295-05:00Thanks Gary!
