This past weekend was text book CAVU both days, more what you might find in early October around here than mid Sept, deep crystal blue skies devoid of any clouds whatsoever, high temps struggling to reach 72 Fahrenheit, wind light and variable. 10 years ago there would have been the constant sound of piston singles entering or leaving the pattern. I live near the Class C airport for our city and there are several turf fields in the area as well. I can probably count on just one hand the number of private GA airplanes I saw flying this weekend. I guess it's fuel prices paired with the economy driving it for the most part. Sad.
