What's the rest of the story?  Some politician acting up again or some big business man that cares little about men having fun.  DOC Holliday

Actually it's the new airport manager wanting to be sure we have insurance. The property is owned by a private company on the airport but he wants it anyway. We have AMA site insurance so it's not a problem. Catching up to this guy seems to be. He is never in and doesn't return emails or phone calls.     Mike

Thanks Mike for staying on him. I called him today and only got voice mail. I have grown fond of the flying site in Sumner. Its a short drive for me. Three of us flew there Sun AM , no issues.  Both sites are a problem with a south wind.

Hi guys,

Just got back into town after almost two weeks of, well, a lake resort largely in the rain. Joy. But I got a lot of reading done anyway. We did have a few nice days anyway.

Glad to hear the Narrows is back. I don't know about the site in Sumner.

The Sekrit Sumner Site iS on the other Side of 167, and 3 blocks north...eZ to find. The return to the Fwy. is a bit tricky if you're Northbound! :-[

Pretty much the same sort of good/bad wind issues, but with a lot less traffic problems. I'm not a fan of the Hwy. 16/I-5 interchange.  >:(  Maybe it will be better when all the construction/distruction is finished...but I doubt it!  VD~ Steve
