Whiteplains' VASI Check

Visual Approach Slope Indicator (VASI) at the beginning of runway 27 was checked this morning. Ken Plessor (Instructor) gave Don Cook a short training class on how to do this check. Ken said that I did a great job and that can expect my certificate of training in the mail in a few days. Right!

Update: 8-12-2009 Thanks Ken for the fine certifiacate of training.... I got one after all. ;-)

Nice and level.

Adjust till bubble is centered.

Read scale on side to get angle.

Just slip it in, till it rest on rail in back and front.

Ken found some wasps in the shed. With the help of Steve Sanderson, they are no longer a concern. Thanks to his small arms training, they didn't have a chance.

With a steady hand, Steve zaps the wasps.
