Pietenpol-List: Wx update (Chicago forecast) Brodhead

Post by matronics »

Still tuned in....I have to wonder about the purpose of a HALF SCALE Pietenpol. It's much easierto fly real airplanes than RC models, and for not all that much more effort hecould build a full sized version and do side-by-side formation flying with you.--------Bill FrankRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Wx update (Chicago forecast) BrodheadDate: Tue, 20 Jul 2010 06:39:23 -0400

FYI- Brodhead is 32mi. south of Madison, 97mi. north of Chicago. Living in Madison and often flying down to Brodhead, I've found Brodhead weather to be identical to Madison's.Roman Bukolt NX20795 See y'all down there!On Jul 20, 2010, at 6:36 AM, Kringle wrote:>> Weather.com shows a much more favorable forecast.>> --------> John>>> Read this topic online here:>> http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
