I just got a call with some very bad news.  The owner of the team that I used to race for was out riding with his long time gf on their harleys and she was out in front when a truck pulled out into her path and she was killed instantly.  Jim was like a dad to me and we always joked around by calling each other "dad" or "son" and I looked at Linda like an adopted mom.  Jim just lost his daughter two years ago to an OD so this is a lot for him.  I have no idea what to think right now.

If the weather is ok my dad is going to come down to get me tomorrow.  I just can't take too much time off work but I want to be there for the service.

Looks like the weather will cooperate with dad tomorrow coming into Chicago area. 20% chance of afternoon T-Storms in the late afternoon.

It would be much better if he would just finish his IFR.  Just fly high and fast.

I just got an email from my friend about how he was all pissed off and he was gonna boycott Starbucks because they were anti war and didn't support the troops.  So I sent him the link to http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/s/starbucks-iraq.htm and said, sucker.  I just got his retraction email.    :lol:

IFR rating just teaches pilots to know when NOT to fly.

The hood sucks.

I completely hate staring at gauges. Glass cockpits though are a different story.
