Nice weather.

I woke up today, thinking I'd be going flying... and here's what the METAR told me:
KIIB 091335Z AUTO 06008KT 3SM OVC004 13/12 A3012 RMK AO1

Oy... I like Iowa weather, but sometimes it can be a pain in this business. Oh well, school work never gets weathered out.

What else?
I have been reading some new books lately, thanks to a friend at the airport. The author is John Nance, who is also an airline captain (maybe retired). If you ever get a chance, pick up a book of his and read it. I haven't sat down and read anything in a couple of years, but his books are great and very correct in all of the aviation references. Run on over to http://www.amazon.com and see what you can find. Or the library would work too.

Yes, John J. Nance is a quick read. I have read two of his books in two nights each. I read till 3:00 and 4:00 A.M. John does apoligize for keeping folks awake at night. "Turbulance" and "The Last Hostage" are just riviting.
