Journal Notes
- Refuel (mains only) and add oil on arrival
- Now I'm in desert, and the scenery shows it too.  Like an airborne version of Rat Patrol.
- AME says "beautiful shape".
- In RW, picked up the new WRX today!  Traded the Mustang and returned the Forester.  Fun, fun car.  Had the 3M paint protection applied today.  Need to ensure the rims will fit tomorrow... will check front tire since the front brakes are bigger.  So good to be home after a week in Ottawa.

Journal Notes
- Refuel (mains only) and add oil on arrival
- bad scenery layers in P3D... prop strike
- AME says "prop destroyed... pretty bad prop strike.  There may be additional damage.  Our oil filter is loaded with white metal.  We should replace the lower end."  That will be spendy.
- In RW, feeling 100%.  The kids, including Lexy, did a fun play/musical at HBC today... fun time!  Off to Ottawa tomorrow for a night.
