This is depressing! If the inversion sets in now for all season I am going to go crazy. The only good thing is that I get to shoot approaches all day long with studs into the crap. But the reality is that we can't go in and out when it is truly low vis and so it really isn't that exciting. It takes the wind out of the GA sails.

Come on baby, SNOW! Give me a storm or lets get some air movement in here.

That's one thing I don't miss. Wait until summer and I'll be begging to be back in SLC though.

SGU temperature averages

103 average! If I wanted to live in hell there are a lot cheaper ways to do it than this.

I'm delicate, what can I say? They don't make them much whiter than me.

Already found a bunch for ya that are of the type they seem to use, based on Tuesday's selection and the aviationinterviews.com gouge. Random, nonpublished holds seem to be fairly common, too.

Yeah, Tuesday was a learning experience, that is for sure. Alright Aloft, we've gotta do some nights in the Sim when you get a chance. Humiliate me, I will learn this stuff eventually.
