Been having plenty of that round Leuchars no flying for the past month at least just beginning to miss the background noise not even getting the late evening engine runs .The runway repair must be taking longer than expected. If the ash keeps coming it will be a short if at all display season for everyone .The year I can maybe see 558 up ,some volcano gets belly ache .

Spillchucker keeps wanting to change XPL to Palmolive ,is it trying to say something =)) =)) =))
