They're Baaack!

The mud daubers.


A little out of focus (so sue me), but that is a fuel sample drain that is completely blocked by a mud dauber's nest.

You can see further, but as for seeing recognizable objects on the ground, ten miles, maybe. It often gets worse here in the summer, and VFR flying is not much fun when it seems as though you're flying inside of a milk bottle.

By the way, if you want a classic Champ, this one is for sale at 44N:
