Took a rode around the patch in a 1960 C310 today.

A D Model with the Tuna Tanks. Meticulously restored by John P. the owner. We blasted off just as the snow squall was on the airport. Departed runway 26 at Danbury only to hit some moderate snow aloft at the departure end. Came right back around and landed. The squalls were coming in waves and it lowered visibility to just above three miles. Would have been nicer to take the old girl around a bit but we looking at radar we wouldn’t have got back in if we left the pattern. At least not without waiting a long time or filing.

It was a fun break from helping Pete run CAT 6 network cabling to the new side of our building. Damn snow cut the ride short and now we’re running cable again.
