Happy Winter Solstice!

A small group of us is planning to go to the Friday Fish Fry at The
Duck Inn on the 26th at 6:00(ish). Come on out and join us for an
evening of hand-flying, lies and rants. The mosquitoes aren't too bad
in Wisconsin at this time of the year.

Oh, by the way, Happy Winter Solstice! From here on, the days are
getting longer

Local Notam In Whitewater

 
In case any of you are planning to fly over Whitewater in the next few months - be careful, especially over-flying the town at night in your HG!
 
Joel sent me this notice so please keep it in your dossier because you know what will happen beginning next March.......? Fly safe and fly often.

There will be a 180' crane erected at the intersection of Starin and Prince streets in Whitewater. It will be lowered to 100' feet at night and will be lighted. It will be in the area for approximately 6 months.

I assume there is a notam on file but have not verified that. You can always check notams with flight service at: 800-wx-brief. Probably a good idea to do that anyway with the possibility of TFR's in this post 911 era.

Thanks,
