Picture of the Day: Sleeping the winter away
John Bendig submitted this photo and note: “My 1974 Maule M5-220C based at Erie International Airport (KERI) in Pennsylvania. The plane is hooked up to a heater in the engine cowling and battery minder. The airport does not support GA privately owned hangars and does not plow the taxiway to private hangars, so we must put our planes in storage for the winter. Even if you are equipped with skis, you are not allowed off the runways.”

Picture of the Day: Slipping on by on LSD
Chuck Lee submitted this photo and note: “Returning home to Indiana from an International Comanche Society fly-in in western Wisconsin, weather forced my wife and I to fly east to Milwaukee, then south along the Lake Michigan shore line, then under O’Hare’s TCA. Those of us a certain age will understand the photo title. All others go to iTunes songs for Lake Shore Drive by Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah. There is no better way to slip on by on LSD than in our Comanche.”
