Recently my office was relocated near a regional airport.
(well, within 15nm actually)
As I was sitting here, I wondered how nice it would be to have an aviation radio to listed to approach/departure to ILM. You know, motivation music for the flyboy at heart while stuck 'workin for the man'..
I had been wanting to buy a handheld radio as a backup when flying so, this would make an excellent excuse to do such..
I know that one of those $99 A/C Sporty desk radios (recieve only) would actually be the best choice for my office but, like I said.. assuming a handheld would receive, it would make a darn good excuse to get one.
Any of you guys got handheld reception on the ground at that range (15nm)
Just wondering..
Also, a special message to all those attending OSH this week.
I'm EXTREMELY jealous !!!!
However, I'm also glad for each of those able to attend.
Safe skies on your return trip...
