—The bone-chilling cold (well, it was for Floridians and similar warm-climate types anyway) moved on and temperature order was restored today, with clear and calm blue skies and mid-70s temps. Lovely! *** —Sport Pilot enthusiasts came out in droves: exhibitors I talked to were pleased and surprised by the turnout.
