Winter Blues

[Mooney Fan]

My flying hours have taken it in the shorts the past 30 days. Flown 3 times for 2.5

The weather has been awful. When the winds are not blowing its MVFR or worse. Been colder than normal.

The next 7 days doesn't look any better.

What a drag.....

It's all perspective. There are many (if not most) on here who would be thrilled to get three flights in a month.

My understanding is Monday will be an absolute beautiful day.

I did 1.3 of commercial maneuvers yesterday; it was -8 deg F when I headed to the airport to shovel.

MVFR is good for pattern work.

Do it!!

Yup, I've flown once this year, and it the plane never warmed up.

I think I summed it up pretty well in this short but sweet letter

Some of your best work right there!

@Mooney Fan you are wiser than I. I took a short hop to get fuel this afternoon. 8 deg F and 20 gusting 30 while getting self-serve fuel was downright brutal, but I had wind to my back so that helped. Putting plane back in the hangar was painful to my exposed big nose. Ridiculous.
