Marshall, MN - Here we come!

What a day, what a day. Just returned from a trip up to Marshall, Minnesota in the 'ol Navajo.

We departed at about 8:00am and had about 1 hour and 25 minutes enroute. It rained fairly hard from Cedar Rapids up through Waterloo and then cleared up fairly nicely. We were solid IMC throughout this time, but it was just rain and actually smooth. We didn't mind at all.

We did have a flat nose tire up in Marshall. The guys up there were great and got things fixed promptly. I still don't know what caused the problem - it wasn't that bad of a landing! :P

Coming back into Cedar Rapids was a little more of a ride - a lot more bumps and more rain, but still nothing severe. Shot the ILS into Cedar Rapids - non-event as well. I guess there just isn't much to tell you about the trip! :P

Keep it real and safe.
