englishal,

1) I believe the FAA ruled it as carb ice....I'm still learning, but I just don't understand yet how you could get carb ice at 2400RPM in a climb at 3800'.

2) As to the beautiful girl. She was a friend in town and had never been up in a small aircraft before. Needless to say she wouldn't go up after that. However, her husband was ready to go up that night and wants to be a military aviator.
Thanks Tony, good job
