Welcome. Where are you?
I am in south Seattle, I fly out of Boineg, Crest, Auburn, Arlington and Harvey depending on the plane I am flying.
I winter in Seattle & summer in Seattle, My wife does not like it hot. I would prefer Reno where I fly gliders in the summer out of AirSailing, north of Sparks.
