PeteMc Posted February 2, 2022 Report Share Posted February 2, 2022 Sure would have been fun to go flying today.... Stuff on the Pilot side was very wind blown and felt like lifting concrete. Finally got it all cleared, but I was wiped by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exM20K Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 Reminds me of how CDW used to look after a big snow. I’d definitely complain to airport manager. They need to do a better job REMOVING, not piling up snow in front of tie down CUSTOMER planes. -dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had it worse in the past, so I think they're now at least going through with a straight blade vs angled to pile it up even higher. There was a little over 2 ft there and you can't see it in the pics but there are various places there are high piles of snow. But do agree with you on doing a better job. We've brought up a few times about using a Front Loader so the snow berm would be a lot smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted February 3, 2022 Report Share Posted February 3, 2022 We had some snow here a couple weeks ago, on the weekend. I stayed inside, cried and added bourbon to my morning coffee . . . . One of my Life Goals, after 5 years in OH and 9 in WV, was to never see another snow flake except on TV. I don't like cold weather, I hate being cold, and I absolutely despise shoveling that stuff!! Good luck with what's coming your way this week. Down here, we are having Flood Watches for the heavy rain today. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After seeing that photo I'm going to sip a little bourbon to show my support 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bartman Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 And all this time I thought bourbon and flying should not be in the same discussion. Now I know better. Wife got me a bourbon barrel cabinet for Christmas and still not delivered. Hopefully soon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exM20K Posted February 4, 2022 Report Share Posted February 4, 2022 The right tool for the job: a 25HP lawn tractor with a 42” snow thrower. Plows suck because they leave big berms of snow that making taxiing a low wing like the Mooney a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would harden and persist long after all the other snow was gone. Good times…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
