Well I just got back from a very enjoyable time in Sebastian. It's
nice to know that after a year of work I'm not off the track. I was
also great meeting people in person instead of electronically.
I got a lot of IFR practice both directions, 4 hours in the clouds
going down and 2 coming back. Fortunately it was mostly pretty smooth.
The funniest thing happened as we were going to leave this morning.
I'm dropping the car off at Enterprise and there is another guy (Tim?)
there renting a car who says "If you're going back to the airport I
can give you a lift". The he asks where I was based and I said North
Carolina. "Oh yeah, where in NC?". I said Raleigh since it is the
closest recognizable city. He says "Oh are you based at RDU, I'm out
of Tango Tango Alpha". [Sanford NC about 8 miles from my house at
9NC8]. So then I say "Well in that case I'm actually at Eagle's
Landing". Turns out he was going to go to the event but he was VFR and
couldn't get out until Sat. and now he's in Sebastian getting his
annual done at Velocity. It's a small world.
