Volume 38 Issue 1 January, 2019
On Saturday December 15th we had a fly-out to Lone Rock Tri-County Airport to have break-fast at their Piccadilly Lilly Diner.
The forecast showed early morning haze with restricted visibility and as a result our depar-tures were a bit delayed. However, it turned to be as nice a day as they come. Initially 11 peo-ple signed up to go but in the end, we were 13 people in 6 airplanes. Tom Solar had rented a C-172 from Blue Skies, and George Roby and Mic Petrie went with him. I went with Paul Rani-eri in the Glastar, and Lon Danek in the 172 came with Jim Roozee and Jim Bertoglio. Then Rich Oleszczuk came with his partners Ryan Healy and Lance Schulte. Then Jeff Dingbaum came alone and Dave Boone did the same. We were seated at two tables – they do not a sin-gle table big enough for thirteen. But it was all good, the restaurant was good, good food and service. I forecast this will be a place we fly to again.
Keep the blue side up. Ole
