Didn't make the local TV news that I know, but did make the daily newspaper. We drove past it, and wife remarked that Andersen Girls Orchard had a plane in their driveway. Thought it might be something they were doing for the publicity at the time... WRONG!
This plane has been over our place for several days, over a week. We live about 12 miles (as the crow flies) right off the end of the runway of the Lakeview airport and often we're in the flight path between airport and the fields. Mercifully, this pilot flies a little higher when in transit, so we don't feel under attack. (Others may fly far lower!) Got one heckova engine in this one. He was working over a field several miles south of us the other evening, out of sight from here. I was wondering is someone was doing bombing runs with a WWII twin engine bomber - WHATTA RACKET.

Wife and I took a trip yesterday, 60 miles south - no farming going on except a couple farmers spreading barnyard fertilizer on the high ground. Now, my question what would they be applying this time of year? Only thing I can think of would be urea, and that doesn't make much sense to me.. (I'm thinking of trying to get on a field with a cultivator this afternoon- we'll have to see how it goes. - this is mid-Michigan!)

Newspaper article speaks for itself.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
