We keep our airplane at Sundance Airport. It is not unusual to see the wind sock standing straight out.
Flew into there one morning in the late 80's. Pilot was an ex-Vietnam fighter pilot.

He wasn't happy, I wasn't happy. I drove back home in a car that afternoon. He's probably still in the closest bar to the airport, trying to forget.
