Heck, they forecasted "blowing dust" today......it was more like "blowing acreage!"

Zane, please bring Austin Acres back to me when you get a chance. Thanks.

Man, it was definitely something flying back from Austin this afternoon. The much gustier than predicted winds didn't help matters either. Ended up having to go to Midway because Grand Prairie had too much Low Level Windshear from the buildings on the west side of the field. Definitely a new experience for my logbook.

Oh yeah, and watching a half dozen airliners go missed at DFW an hour or so later when I got back to leave the keys at the FBO was something I've not seen in quite some time either.

Wierd day to say the least.

Vis was down to less than 1 mile for awhile at AFW yesterday afternoon due to smoke.
