Stopped by the Police.....

Sorta.

This weekend flew into 0B5 - Turners Falls to attend the Car Show at the local Tech High School. A number of us were the "Wings" component of the show. Just the show was a quarter mile down the road from the airport. The airport had mowed a temporary taxiway to a gate. The police stopped the traffic and nine of us taxied down the road to the show. Same process in reverse after. Had about 50 kids got a chance to "sit in a plane". Memo to self - no matter how much you think you have "safed" the plane by disconnecting the battery lead. Some kid will flick a switch and hit the ELT switch when they do. Fortunately they hit "Test" and not "On".... Next time - Tape over!
