Nr,. .. .Great diary! I did some R22 flying from John Wayne while in the L.A. area on business. It wasn't nearly as extensive as your trip, but loads of fun, even though stomach was churning from bad lunch earlier in Phoenix airport. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" /> (Perhaps "bad lunch" and "airport" in the same sentence is redundant.) The best part was confined area work and zooming around down in the canyons nearby. Hadn't had that opportunity before, since the nearest canyons to my home are hundreads of miles away. Thanks for bringing back good memories. Glad you had a good time.. . . . <small>[ 03 March 2002, 05:24: Message edited by: rotorfan ]</small>
