These days I usually begin the week looking at www.weather.com. This has become a daily habit in addition to the aviation weather products I subscribe to, as I invariably get a call from Janey stating weather.com is saying "the snow or rain will clear from 11 to 1, that is your flying window". I scratch my head, consult my charts and say "hogwash". But weather.com is often right, so checking this has now become a staple for me.

EcoFlight flew the senator and his staff over the Thompson Divide in Colorado to help deepen their understanding of this area that is critical to the local economy. The aerial perspective over the Thompson Divide presents a compelling and stark contrast, as the Divide presents an actual dividing line - to the West and North is the industrialization of the Roan Plateau and the Piceance Basin, to the South and East is the Roaring Fork Valley providing world-class recreational opportunities.
