What is summer?<\/h1>\n

For most people, \u00c2\u00a0it’s camping, swimming, tanning, sunroof open, shorts, flip flops \u00c2\u00a0and of course, flying!<\/p>\n

Safety first<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Be safe in the warm weather flying. \u00c2\u00a0As the weather is unpredictable, thunderstorms, lightening and hail even in our summer months. \u00c2\u00a0Stay alert and prepared.<\/p>\n

As you venture out to all of those cool places to fly, make sure you have a great GPS system. \u00c2\u00a0One, for navigation, but as a pilot its a great way to see the new\u00c2\u00a0places to fly to. \u00c2\u00a0With the Garmin 796 it has the fabulous terrain and synthetic vision that shows the map in a 3d image. \u00c2\u00a0 There is also the Aera 500 series which are great for navigation (even if your not flying but driving that big trailer!).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For another aspect of safety, whether driving, hiking or flying, take the SPOT. \u00c2\u00a0The SPOT with SOS, help and custom messages, this little gadget is great for help.<\/p>\n
