Journal Notes
- Refuel (mains) and add oil on arrival.
- AME says "great shape" once we cleaned up the plugs and fixed the fuel flow guage... again.
- Comments... boring scenery.  Uneventful... until I got to OOFD in the pitch black... no runway lights... diverted to OOMS... always leave with full tanks... glad I did.
- In RW, Carl came over to join the rest of the fam for a visit.  Lovin' Christmas!  Finished off the latest bottle of Lanny... a fine spirit.
