It will have to wait for a tad as I am on myway to Milwaukee for a few weeks to visit my 90 year old mother andspend mothers day eith her. Sorry about all them skeeters. We have nothad any for the past couple of years because of no rain , but we havehad quite a bit of rain recently and I know them buggers will be outsoon. Good excuse to fly and try to outrun them. Thanks again. Ernie/________________________________________________________________________________

Good excuse to fly and try to outrun them.Outrun them!!! Heck I bring them all back with me on the leading edges andthe prop.
