Stans

Morning y'all, partly cloudy skies, 73F and very humid as it rained again last night. Expecting a partly cloudy day, a high of 94F, and a chance of afternoon and evening thunderstorms.

I agree, Jay.

Morning y'all, rain and thunderstorms last night. It is currently 71F, incredibly humid, and clear skies. Expecting a partly cloudy day, high of 94F and a good chance of more afternoon and evening thunderstorms.

Restored warbirds often have additional seating for passengers.

No fatalities, no serious injuries and the aircraft is repairable. The nose gear failed to extend and lock after numerous attempts to get all three gear down and locked. The pilot was instructed to circle in order to burn off fuel, then was directed to a runway for an emergency landing.

Morning y'all, clear skies, 80% humidity and 76F to start the day. Expecting variable cloudiness, a high of 95F and a good chance of thunderstorms this afternoon and tonight.

Morning y'all, clear skies, 72F, 82% humidity. Expecting sunshine and 100F for a high today.

Morning y'all, clear skies, 75F, 80% humidity. It was 97F yesterday, expecting mostly clear skies and 98F today.

What the hell was that? Straight outta Compton, New York, and Stockholm?

Morning y'all, clear skies, 72F and 90% humidity. Expecting a mostly sunny, very hot, and very humid day. High temperature forecast to be 97F and the humidity will drop to only 50%. More of the same for the next week.

Morning y'all, clear skies 69F, expecting partly cloudy skies and a high of 95F for day 1 of what is expected to be a prolonged heat wave.

The world is on fire, that's what's going on.

Geten lost.

Morning y'all, partly cloudy and 67F, expecting a partly cloudy day with a high of 91F.

Morning y'all, strong thunderstorms rolled through late yesterday afternoon, numerous trees down and power outages across the area. No damage at Casa de Stans, just a bunch of leaves and perhaps some twigs in the yard. Currently it is 66F, humid and clear skies. Expecting a mostly sunny day with a high of 91F.

Morning y'all, had some rain last night so now it is wet, clear skies, 69F. Expecting a partly cloudy day with scattered afternoon and evening thunderstorms, high of 91F.

So much to see at Zeno's!

Yesterday morning we saw the first flight of a newly restored B-29. Yesterday afternoon, in Canada, a T-28 crashed during an airshow performance, the pilot died in the crash. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/experienced-pilot-dies-after-plane-crashes-at-cold-lake-air-show-1.3683081

Morning y'all, clear skies, 70F, and humid. Expecting a mostly sunny day and a high of 96F.

At least no one was hurt, that's the important thing.

Press conference was really more of a thank you show for those who restored the aircraft, crewed it today and to the congressman and others who convinced the USAF to allow the use of McConnell AFB's runway. Seems that other than the bomb bay door issue, all went well. I'm sure more test flights will be conducted. "Doc" was piloted by the pilots who fly "Fifi" as the FAA requires pilots to have a type certification for aircraft of this size. As far as I know, the only pilots who hold this certification are the crew of "Fifi". They will be teaching the crew of "Doc" how to fly the B-29, then the FAA can issue a type certification to the crew of "Doc".

Wheels back on the ground at 10:04 hrs EDT. She has taxied back to her parking area, press conference to be held shortly.

Today marks the first flight of the newly restored B-29 "Doc". The first attempt at takeoff was scrubbed due to the forward bomb bay door failing to fully lock into the closed position. This problem was quickly rectified and Doc's wheels left the runway at 09:59 hrs EDT! She is currently flying circuits around the field.
