We only sailed for a couple of hours. It was a bit foggy here...visibility varied from 1/4 to 1/2 mile. The iPhone pictures don’t do the fog justice.

Golly flying commercial is fun ;) I prefer my setup. I always bring a bottle of water from home, the airplane never ever leaves without me since I have his check. And we park our cars. in the hangar for the flight. Never any layovers since we come back home. We handed one of the pilots a case of Yuengling beer today as a extra special bonus, after we got back. |
That was a quick trip Sid.
Well that was a hectic week at work, and I’m glad to be retired again for the next two weeks. :cool: We’re about to head to the airport, and we’ll be in Auckland NZ lunchtime tomorrow. |

Just this is my view of the clouds. Different perspective. The good news is was a area we just flew past, and the project area was clear as was the airport where we land. |

Going to be a long winter if this weather keeps up. Plowed last week, plowed this week, waiting for a nor'easter (rain/snow mix) today. Got any extra room on that boat Jim? |
Yikes! Sorry Pete, and sorry I asked, too! I’d suppressing those memories as best as I can.
We’re socked in with fog this morning. It’s Glenn's clouds, just at ground level. As soon as it clears, come on over, Pete! |
Good Freakin Morning!

Morning all, Up at sparrow fart so I can get prepped to be molested by airport immigration officials. I reckon it’s harder to leave a country than it is to get in one. |
Argh. A 30 minute task in the garage has been 3 hours and I am not yet putting it together. Grrrrr. Grumble. Grumble.
|
Reading penthouse in the garage? I have that same problem...time disappears. :D
|
Woohoo! Through security
|
|
Wow, are you guys in the lounge for flights to the northern hemisphere or something? Everything looks sideways.
|
Have fun in Auckland, Jeff. I wish I was there!
Went to a shop in Vista, CA (Brent's former town) and picked up a set of new 16x7 Panasports for the Z. Still in their blue vinyl shrink wrap. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1540680196.jpg Now to choose tires... Still a fair bit of work to finish up before the Z can hit the street, hopefully later this year. |
Just got back from the grocery store. More than 80& of the stuff in the chip isle is made by Frito-Lay. Rows and rows of all kinds of flavored chips. And the one row, that always runs out, the Toasted Corn/Plain Doritos they discontinue. Boycotting all Frito-Lay broducts. And there are no other toasted corn tortilla chips it's all wheat four, and only one other brand that Frito-lay does not make.
Going to start getting Pringles. Besides, Pringles cardboard tubes are more environmentally friendly they can be recycled, chip bags not so much. |
Get something around 225. I like Zs with wide tires.
Since I don't autocross any more I go with high performance all season. So I don't have to worry about weather or if I get into a go fast situation. Just don't make them stick out 3 or 4 inches from the fender wells with what looks like 15° of negative camber. If your tire shop wants to do that, tell them they should be doing upholstery not wheel/tires. |
225's will be daunting with stock suspension & unrolled, unflared fenders. The guy running the Datsun racing & restoration shop was pushing me to go with 205/55/16s. Lots of good hi-perf summer tires in that that size.
|
Just figured 225 was max. That's what all of the Porsche I've owned except for the 914 ran on the fronts.
