Journal Notes
- Refuel and top up oil on arrival.
- AME indicated on arrival that airplane is in "great shape".
- FSX ATC blew it this time... IFR, above broken ceiling, then given visual approach, had to cancel IFR, dodge between clouds, called tower to land.
- In RW, recovering from Super Bowl shock... quite the game.  With such a short leg to this one, thought a mid-week flight was a good idea.  It was -28C when I left the house this morning.  By Sunday it should be up to +8C.  Love this Calgary weather.
