I live in Minnesota and I must say this has been the worst year for clear skies in a VERY long time. Plus smoke from Canadian and Western wildfires didn't help anything. Couple that with the extreme cold this past winter and the MI-250 has been pretty quite this year. Gave me a chance to do a lot of maintenance but it sure would be nice to hear the drive motors hum!

Where are the clear skies?

We have had a few good nights here but it has not been a great year. It is tough to just wait it out.
