Hump Day Update..

Not much but just a quick update to everyone to say "HI"

Had an early morning this morning...woke up at 2:15am to pee...did manage to get back to sleep though...woke up again this morning at 7:00am. Legs are really achy today...and I'm very tired...I think because of waking up so early..

I got an e-mail this morning from an old friend of mine..A guy that I've stayed in touch with for over 20 years..we haven''t seen each other in about that long but he is one of those people that I developed a friendship with and even though we haven't seen each other we still keep in touch over the years and miles.. A True Friend..!!

Anyway, he lives in Oklahoma City and works for the FAA so I get airplane related stories and jokes from him fairly often.. Well, He sent this to me today....It is good for a chuckle and I hope it doesn't offend any of the women here that reads this...

Flying Lessons

My ex-wife started taking flying lessons about the time our divorce started and she got her license shortly before our divorce was final, later that same year.

Yesterday afternoon, she narrowly escaped injury in the aircraft she was piloting when she was forced to make an emergency landing in Southern Tennessee because of bad weather. Thank God our kids were with me at the Beach House this weekend.

The NTSB issued a preliminary report, citing pilot error: Judy was flying a single engine aircraft in IFR (instrument flight rating) conditions while only having obtained a VFR (visual flight rating) rating.

The absence of a post-crash fire was likely due to insufficient fuel on board. No one on the ground was injured.

Photograph below was taken at the scene and shows the extent of damage to her aircraft.

She was very lucky.
