Where's Summer B?

Hello eFriends!  I’ve been pretty quiet one here recently because I have been absent from the skies.  I’ve missed it, but during the summer time I play a lot of ultimate Frisbee and do a fair share of sailing.  I played when I was in college for Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.  In fact, I can be seen here in red shorts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxVXmJ9qZiM.  This tournament was about 3 years ago, but good enough for an example here. This year I’ve been captaining a mixed team from Indianapolis called “Liquid Hustle”.  This is the first year for the team and we have learned and have to learn a lot.  It’s been fun though.  Like I mentioned, I also sail.  I recently purchased a new boat, an MC Scow built by Johnson Boat Works in 1990.  I’m not going to bore you all with photos, but if you see sailboats on Eagle Creek Reservoir while flying or driving by, wave at me!

Anyway, to the flying:  Last night I went out for a night flight to get my currency back.  I started at about 9:20 from KEYE.  I did two trips through the pattern then flew northwest toward Zionsville/Lebanon.  I went north about 10 miles, just checking out the sights and headed back to KEYE for my third landing.  It was a beautiful night and I couldn’t have asked for more.  Wind was basically calm at the ground and was maybe 5 knots out of the northwest at 2000’.  Indianapolis looked magical from 1200’AGL.  I was listening in on the Indianapolis approach and I keep wondering if the woman controller I am hearing is Katie from http://bubo-scandiacus.blogspot.com.  Maybe someday I’ll request a touch and go over there and find out.  Seemed like a lot was going on yesterday though…

Time: 0.7 hrs

Landings: 3 night

Total: 118.4 hrs
