Default No fly zone!!!

Well, guys - this is how things look in the No Fly Zone right now!!
Over here in Norway we have stopped singing "I'm dreaming of a white Christmas" because
it's white here already, and I would much rather have a warm and green Christmas!! Anyone
wanna trade???
The picture was taken from my shop tonight. Also, we only get 6 hours of daylight
this time of year - I don't think people are meant to live here??

I can't imagine what it's like to live in a refrigerator.

I can identify with you. We're probably close to the same latitude as tomorrow we will have 5 hours and 57 minutes of daylight. Yesterday the temperature at my house was 3 degrees F (-16C ). Today is a balmy 24 degrees F (-4C).

We also have that white stuff all over the place.

need one day of this go somewhere nearer the poles to meet with this white stuff... heard that this also happens frequently also in the outer planets of the solar system!

Just look at it on the positive side, you have all that time to build. Well maybe not!

Not sure it is the same thing Wagner... the white stuff in the pics seems to be much cleaner!

wow, that must be pretty recent, as I just got back from Norway last week. Hey Tor, I stay in Tonsberg when I go there for work. Factory is in Horten, but I prefer to stay in Tonsberg.... more to do. I pretty much plant myself at the airport there during the summer on the weekends. Just wish I had something stored to fly there when I visit.

I can tell you there is a real difference - there is MUCH more power available at -18 C!!!
However, you have to boil your fingertips afterwards to wake them up from the dead,
and all your finger nails fall off!!!![:-]

OPS! Forgot the cradle for my F-16 outside!! Lucky I found it before it disappeared!

Hello Tor,

Almost same lattitude here in Dalarna, Sweden. Looks almost the same from my kitchen window. Looking forward to at least 4 month of building!

This is what I´m looking forward to:

Pete

I think that you should fly and burn as much kero as you can to accelerate the global warming

Let me know if you want to trade for heavy rain and dark grey sky!
