I'm Singing the "It's Only a Snow Storm and a Little Annual Maintenance" Blues

[Morelle C. Jones]

I've been the proud owner of a -15 for three weeks now and still have yet to fly it!

Brought it home two weeks ago, last weekend we got a most unusual snow storm and started the Pawnee's annual. The weather is forecast to be beautiful this weekend (for the first time in weeks) but no tow plane - the Pawnee is in serious need of being put back together.

Will it rain next weekend or what? Sing to me -15!

Hahaha,

I saw the topic title and suspected spam on my new forum, but it was the cry of a very anxious man!

Despite the global warming, the whole northern hemisphere is struck by winter conditions. Here in the Netherlands we're having snow since Christmas and we are ice skating for weeks now. I guess the grass airstrips are very vulnerable by the frost; so no flying for now...

Hi Morelle. You are not on your own, Derbyshire in England has been snow bound for 8 weeks with no flying. Do you have a nose hook for your 15? We normally winch launch so only have a belly hook, the initial ground run on Aero Tow is interesting to say the least!

I think you will like it in the air, very easy to fly. I also find it a dream to land.
