And has made a BILLION dollar deal with a Chinese electric bus manufacturing company to produce PPE as if there aren't companies in CA that could do this. After all it's only the sixth largest economy in the world.

Thank you PT I'm really bad at attaching links last time I did that the thought police pulled the video. This whole thing sucks on so many levels kiss your freedom goodbye everyone our constitutional rights have effectively been destroyed by the... Ahh never mind I am so heart broken over what has happened and it's never going to get any better not ever. We have opened a Pandora's box and the government won't ever let us close it again. They have assumed absolute power which we all know corrupts absolutely. Mandatory testing mandatory vaccine tech companies actively tracing your every step your papers please, anyone ever hear those words before. We are so f....d

At some point the flood gates are going to open or break there won't be a vaccine and even if there is will we as free people be forced to take it. I don't like that thought one little bit. For all I know they might put something in it to convince me the world isn't flat. And all of us dutiful citizens that have sheltered and have not gotten the virus are going to get it sooner or later we made major decisions to shut everything down on very incomplete inaccurate models. Would more people have died in the short term if no intervention likely so in the long term well no one knows and we will never know because you can't do both approaches add to that we will never know how many people died with COVID as opposed to from it. F...King politicians have no intention of lifting stay at home orders here in California. Oh and let's not forget that the WHO originally advised that this virus was not transferred human to human.

Dr Birx commented on what Trump said her statement was that he is getting information constantly and only just heard information regarding UV and disaffection moments before the brief and his style is that he runs things over in his mind and tends to verbally analyze as he does. I do believe there is under development a ventilator that can have UV light cast into the lungs. I apologize for my crude terminology.

And the studies by Stanford and USC are they also without merit. Last I heard those were pretty reputable institutions and are also being equally discarded by the media and our trusty government health administrations. Dr Birx was quoted that we won't see normal until October which is interesting as that was the same expectation indicated by the Kern county health administrator in their comments refuting these two pretend doctors. If that's true this country is going to explode.

And I know you guys don't really want that for people and are working on this terrible situation with every bit of strength within you. But to listen to all the experts we are never going to get our lives back and the secondary affect of this the long term is going to be a disaster way worse than the medical issues of the virus.

What your doing is so impressive

Honestly, you guys and Fauci and Birx (spelling uncertain) won't be satisfied until half the population are on vents and the rest of us are killing ourselves because of total poverty. It's too bad that any good news or even hopeful news is just a pack of lies. Stupid f...ing Chinese virus. And of course no one will hold them responsible for what they unleashed on the world.

Had this problem about a year ago and this was with a fairly new down lock block from Lake Aero. Would not give me the green light unless I made a real deliberate upward push. A little tri flow on the slider and problem went completely away.

Oh, I guess if you just make a stupid iPad comment then the link starts working

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfLVxx_lBLU very interesting ARGH...I wish I could figure out how to attach a link on this stupid iPad

So, I guess,we will just sit tight what choice do we have remember we voluntarily gave away our rights cause doctors orders. Watch as the fed keeps printing unheard of amounts of money piling debt on top of debt which will lead to unprecedented inflation that will carry over for generations. I'm more than happy to keep my mouth shut when I don't know what I'm talking about so long as the discussion is of no consequence to my life and our collective freedom. The long term effects of this shut down could be far more dangerous to people's health in terms of emotional depression people taking their own lives the devastating effect on our healthcare system and I don't mean from overwhelming them with the pandemic but because people stop going for fear of the virus or like in your case not wanting to be a bother and when all those millions of people who lost thier jobs no longer have health care insurance or the company's that used to provide that insurance are no longer there what will be the long term effects on the health of our people be then. If the fatally rate ends up being a fraction of one percent instead of the two to five percent that we were originally told because the models were formed without any real idea of the number of people that actually had the virus not to mention the questionable methods for counting the number of people who tragically have passed with the virus but not necessarily because of it. Well there is a lot at stake a lot more than the virus itself. And yes the second opinion was tongue and cheek Billy Bob Sanitation department

I too look forward to better times my fear which is shared by millions of people is that we have allowed fear to dictate an outcome that we may never be able to recover from. Please explain to me why there is such a huge difference between California and Ny / NJ. I'm so sorry I don't have your education and all I can do is form an opinion based on what all the experts are telling us that we have to do. What gets my goat is how condescending they sound when they speak about how inconvenient this is how they just really don't care one bit about this situation beyond the medical side of it. Every time it's oh just a few more weeks oh maybe the end of the month oh maybe the end of June. You are all doing so well following our direction just hang in there we are so proud of you. Please tell me that we can develop an effective vaccine and if we do perhaps we will cure the common cold and aids while we're at it. Never in my life have I seen my constitutional rights taken away so easily. And what really scares me is how much I get a sense that the politicians would really like to keep it this way. Actions speak louder than words. As a medical professional do you get offended when your patient might want to get a second opinion.

ILC please stay out front I have always appreciated your comments on many fronts and obviously your knowledge here would be most valuable. When I started this I was suffering from a severe toothache and my dentist was closed because of the virus. This lasted for several days due to an infection this can sure make one into an angry bear. Whatever your doing out there we appreciate it and hope for your strength and endurance.

Practice practice practice besides it's fun. I like to land with flaps set differently on purpose sometimes none sometimes half sometimes full paying close attention to how Snoopy responds. Our field is 3500 feet and never have a problem making the mid field exit You can do this

Yes that's a shame. Folks have been very civil with expressing their views on what is a very sensitive and challenging subject. Is it related to aviation or Mooneys no but in a sense it is in that if we don't get our shit together real f....ing soon there won't be any hope of life as we know it ie, an economy that will support our wonderful hobby of flying our Mooney's. Airport restaurants will fail for good FBO's will close Avgas will be unavailable because the cost to produce vs demand will make it non profitable, on and on. I really hope that all the smartest people in the room that have successfully shut the world down out of fear are proven wrong. And when that happens they are at least educated enough to admit it. Nothing in the history of our country has so quickly and effectively done more damage to our freedoms than this even 911 didn't force mom and pop business to close their doors yes it did make life different in many ways but nothing like what we're experiencing now. And now as people's patients are running out all we are seeing is more demanding self restrictions being recommended by our state and local governments. Local news Lake county CA total cases 6 with 5 fully recovered and the one remaining doing Ok. Maybe if were lucky they will let us have a few months of freedom before we have to shut it all down again in the fall. And yes this issue is ripe with political differences but this thread has been mostly just a great discussion respectfully made.

Spelling corrected

For many years we loved to listen to and watch Carl Sagans account of the vastness of the universe with billions and billions of galaxies. This was a number most people could not get their heads around. Well now with the Covid stimulus and relief bills we finally have a workable comparison

I know this will have some opponents but you might consider just getting liability coverage for your first 100 hours. That's what I did and coverage was only 900 per year. Once I hit 100 hours I added comprehensive and the costs only went to about 1200 hundred for 35000 hull which I have increased as I have accumulated hours in type. It doesn't cost anything to inquire best of luck

Another spring is now in full bloom and I am not having any allergic reactions. I don't know if a five year duration to receive this treatment is a plan I could stick with. Of course all I can say is how well it worked for me but to add to the success. The owner of the company that I was working for who had a front row seat to my daily suffering and saw the drastic improvement had a condition with serious pain in his neck and shoulders he asked me to inquire with my acupuncture guy if it could help. He said sure one visit. He went for the one visit and had 100% relief. I ran into him many years later and asked if the pain ever came back he said it never did. I'm sure the costs have gone up but when I went it was only 25 dollars a visit. Back then it was not covered by insurance but I think that may have changed as it is more accepted as a legitimate treatment. Whenever I hear of someone suffering from allergies I alway tell them my story. hope whatever you do continues to give you relief

That was a great story it took me almost 40 years to find my dream of flight. Back in high school a close friend and I would talk about how great it would be to build an airplane well we had a Pitts or a BD5 in mind but of course we were just a couple poor well middle class kids so the closest we could get was to build a hang glider using bamboo plastic tarp and duct tape following a plan in popular science or mechanics I can't remember which. His family owned a very large parcel here in lake county with a nice hill that dropped into a flat field. Test flights ended up with lots of cuts and scrapes but the thing did glide somewhat just enough to scare the crap out of anyone with even a little common sense. He went on to get his private in our senior year and we would cut class before lunch drive down to Hayward airport and rent a 152 and fly over the school during lunchtime. Fast forward to year 50 at my girlfriend now wife's encouragement I ended up buying a 150 and getting my private right here in Lake County.

Thank you for the service to our country and actually this thread has been very politics free and for that I compliment the gallery

Good to know about American propeller anyone know what they charge for an airport visit

Yes in fact I do remember that but if I'm not mistaken he is not permitted to perform ECI tests anywhere on the airport property so would still require an RR to get the prop hub to his shop.

R and R your prop and having it shipped is going to bring the costs over the 350 that Stockton propeller charges even if they pick up and deliver for free. Since this test is done with a hand held device wouldn't it make more sense to just bring the test to the propeller twice a week instead
