What parts do you have for sale? Thanks

Probably a good thing , if you did get Madonna , you would probably need another vaccine , or a least some blue ointment

I don’t watch football since kappedick ruined it. I did watch this one only because my friends son got a fire downs in. Congrats to #79. Patrick O Connor. Nice young man that worked very hard and just became a champion

As mentioned, you want to fly out here early in the AM before the winds and thermals start. Also, there is a lot of “no where” out here, good to have water with you , some basic survival gear and a few bags of “Fritos”. Besides eating them , they are great fire starters

I like to place an Alka Seltzer in my mouth and walking around the CVS mumbling “ damn vaccine”

LOL!!! Your name reminds me of a SAS stewardess I used to know. Gee I miss her

I always liked the RV 8 , I was thinking also about and RV4 for fun. Never been in one and don’t think I’d fit. I’m 6’2” and 225 with a 50 inch chest, I suspect a no go ?

May the blessings of the season bestow upon you and yours! Merry Christmas

Well, uh, it’s kind of like , uh scratch that I was thinking about girl in Amsterdam , never mind

I was fortunate to spend some time with Bob Hoover throughout the years. Not only was he the best stick ( in my opinion) he was the classic example of a gentlemen, eloquent, engaging, and humble. One of the nicest people I have ever met. General Yeager was rough as cob and the classic bad ass fighter pilot. He knew he never had to prove anything to anyone and knew he was the best at what he did. He mellowed out like most over the years. The photo above was last year em route to France where he would visit one of the areas where he was downed during the war. One of the great honors of my life to have met these fine men.

First time I met the General was on the flight line early one morning . I walked up and said “Good morning General” , he looked me up and down and replied. “ get the fuck out of my way you side of beef before I kick your ass sideways “. Scared the hell out of me . Yeager was legendary and shall be missed by many. Chase that Ol demon out of the sky sir

Happy Thanksgiving to you all! Fly Safe and enjoy the holiday!

Happy Birthday Captain Moyer

Guys, thank you for your reponses, as mentioned NOT pushing a sales pitch, just wanted insights about some resources to guys stepping to a light jet. Always good to keep a connection to new market opportunities. Listed below is a third party write up if you have interest. Thanks again. https://simpleflying.com/active-winglets/?utm_source=Bibblio

Gentlemen, Just curious if a brief outline on a comparison of acquisition costs and performance comparisons between a new (single pilot approved) and a pre owned air frame would be something useful to you? I work for a company that has developed and installed innovative winglets greatly enhancing performance, safety and reduces fuel burn by as much as 33%.for lite jets. We are looking at offering some data to pilots that my wish to move to a single pilot jet. Thank you for any feedback, if this is against the rules, please delete post and my apologies. Thanks! AP

When I lived in Chicago (KDPA) sometimes I would take my lab to a friends farm in Iowa pheasant hunting, She always loved riding in the truck with me, the airplane not so much. First time she kept trying to get into the front seat, not a good thing. The flight home she was so exhausted she would sleep all the way home. Best to put them in a kennel with a comfy blanket for a safe space. One of my friends would take his dog Roscoe in his Lanceair, always in a kennel behind the seats. One flight he forgot the kennel and placed Roscoe behind the seats and on top of his aircraft cover. He lined up an hammered the throttle and took off, during climb out Roscoe jumped from behind the seats and landed on the canopy latch popping the canopy at 130 kts, he said at that point everything was leaving the aircraft, charts, headsets, his glasses the aircraft cover (which caught the vertical stab and was dragging behind the aircraft. He lowered the nose and kept everything forward trying to stay in the air with all the drag., (The Lanceair doesn't like to be slow). He expected to end up in the Pacific ocean but realized that the aircraft was holding altitude but very mushy, he was able to make a very shallow turn and noticed he was on a downwind and thought he may be able to pull it off. At that point Roscoe decided he had enough and went to jump from the airplane, my friend grabbed him by the neck as we tried exciting the plane and jammed him under his legs screaming at him, while this happened he lost a few hundred feet in altitude. He somehow was able to stay in teh air and continued a shallow turn to final, he was at 170 kts and barley holding altitude. On final he pulled power back a bit and was in a decent rate of decent, just before the numbers he lowered the gear and all hell broke lose, said he came down like a broken elevator, landed fast and hard enough to drove the gear through the wings and slide down the runway to a stop, he ran out of the airplane with Roscoe and some pilots on the field shut down and secured the airplane. Both he an Roscoe survived with a mild case of shock, airplane total loss. Your flying dog story for today.
