Okay, this is cool: I follow Mike Patey, an entrepreneur, serial inventor, and pilot who builds planes in his spare time. He modified a Wilga bush plane, replacing the standard 150hp piston engine with a 600hp turbo-prop. Anyway, he and some ace wingsuit flyers achieved something which had never been done before, which is fly a plane and a wingsuit in formation, to the point of actually grabbing a wingtip. Really cool stuff:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jdccr7qm5NA

^^ That's a very nice example of a 4S...always liked these
Moving the youngest back into his dorm for school. It’s raining. I didn’t bring a hat. Healed to keep your glasses dry. Leaving town the lineup to cross the border was past the entrance into town. And the traffic heading south was nuts all the way to wpg. Hope Bubba wasn’t in it. 2-3 hr wait (or more) to go shopping in the US? No effing way.
Last long weekend before school starts. And despite the exchange rate, there will probably be smokin' deals on paper and pencils and summer wear, that even though you had to wait 2 or 3 hrs or more to cross the border, it will all have been worth it. Plus you made hotel reservations so now you don't have a choice.I see that line up and go - hell no!
Used to be one almost right in town on the Minnesota border but they closed that down years ago. Mostly used by illegals now I suppose...assuming they can follow a road instead of walking through a field. But even that seems to have died down. Next nearest is about 12 miles west, and city dwellers have a hard enough time finding the border (thank god it's a straight shot south of Wpg ) never mind something 12 miles west.
