"The rights of the people to keep and bare arms shall NOT be infringed." Like I said, Words have NO MEANING.... In a progressive utopia. Next...

2nd amendment seems pretty clear in it's writing. Wasn't the Constitution written for The United State(s) of America? The peckers keep pecking...

you met one progressive socialist.... You've met them all.

2015.June The year words ceased to have meaning. Or value...

I wonder if 3rd class medical made it to the Supreme Court what they would say? I wonder.... Hmmmmmm.... Good one. I mean two. Or not. Good week for the other team.

Now THAT was funny... Strange, not Ha, ha... Not cool on sending links of sites the person may or may not enjoy... Nice little mushroom cloud. Let go of my Ego...s...

Our plane is hangered in the Midwest...but it sits. Sometimes for a couple of weeks between flights. I saw the difference between a Camguard coated piece of steel and a piece sans Camguard. My primary protection is changing the oil regularly and trying to fly the plane regularly. If it doesn't do Jack...fine. It is peanuts in the scheme of the cost of an engine. Peter, I fully understand your position on the use of Camguard. I DID, however do some research and based my decision on that research. There is no "Mystery" or trying to control fate involved. I made a decision. Excuse me I am due for my weekly appointment with my mystic...

600 post overhaul running camguard and Phillips. LOP (10-50) burning 9-10 GPH. No oversquare for me. To each his/her own. It's working so far...so good.

Grasshenge...

I don't think that was random...or mower. Birds do some weird stuff...in a hurry. I removed a robin nest from a deck speaker multiple times. She would have it about built in a few hours. Mud base and grass...a lot like your materials. MY theory...and I am sticking to it.

"Big" guys and gals have more knee, ankle and foot issues too. More weight on a frame results in more force...a lot more if technique is not there. Not surprised by this.

Desser is now "on my list"... Thank you.

That is about as "funny" as a case of polio... THAT is propaganda. The "change" is kicking in...

And which way will the pendulum swing on the next contestant...

Usual suspects. Snoooooore.....

No pattern, sorry...but mine is leather in my 66E. Good luck. Mine was OEM-Mooney replacement and was pricey. The original was NOT leather and it was just disintegrating...

Give me the punch line...

Landed right next to Lake Erie (Burke?) and walked to Rock and Roll Museum. Very cool visit in Cleveland. The warehouse district (old wood buildings repurposed for eateries/shops etc.) was awesome. Remember hearing Spin Doctors (performing outside) while walking around people watching. Cool flying out over lake on way in to airport.

There are no secrets: 1. Expect to have to land, wait, divert, spend the night-As stated opportunities for adventure 2. Get up early. Like BEFORE the sun is up. Best/smoothest/clearest flying is EARLY. Not 8AM...Launch at sunrise...and enjoy 3.ADSB weather AFTER on ground brief/update a MUST. 4.Take what altitude you can get VFR. Higher is cooler/cheaper and faster...BUT going West it might be slower, but COOLER is more important than saving gas on a long cross country where it is hot/humid/oppressive down low in the Midwest humidity. High ='s Ahhhhh...NICE. 5. Plan some interesting "Maybe" stops that have courtesy cars (There is an Ap for that) and interesting things to do...while you wait. Be retired. The time pressure crunch can be a "killer"... Good luck. Have fun. I have flown hours to NOT be able to get to my destination. Result? I got to fly for hours...something I love.

My sphincter tone has been hushed by my Bose headset. Get one. Clouds won't bother you anymore.

Lane Wallace was my favorite writer in Flying. She made me "feel". Thanks for sharing this.

Hey cross-eyed lion...check out the Barry S. article thread...Oh yeah, you already did...what a piece of work you are....

What a great thread. Really good (and maybe cathartic) Write-up Dave. I am just waiting for a starting issue to "pop up"...I wish I had your patience. It reminded me of a recent Fast & Loud episode I watched. It was a Falcon I believe, but might have been a Mustang...Mechanic had a bolt break off. He weled a nut on not once, twice, three times...No, four hours later and the fourth welded nut he was able to extract the broken rusted screw from the engine. I marveled at his patience and perceverance. You have raised the bar in that department. God bless your thorough patience and logical trouble-shooting mind. Better than a mystery thriller I look forward to the hero solving the case and getting the girl...back in the air. Good luck and Tally Ho!

69...heh, heh....
