  1. Are the Lords $144 or $124?
  2. Happened just south of Dayton, OH about a year or so ago. They had taken off from Middletown, OH.
  3. "It pisses me off I didn't make it to the WoG airshow. I was IN THE AIR and had to turn back because I don't have an instrument rating." ?????

  5. Be sure to have some lobster rolls in Wiscasset for me.
  6. Where did it say he was obese?
  7. Ah!!! Pleasant memories of VT-27...
  8. Looks like water or oil residue on the bottom of the empennage underneath the rear of the 'bag'. That piece of wood looks just like a piece of wood flooring I've been installing in my living room. Got it from lumber liquidators.
  9. One of my Gills died after only two years. Replaced it with a Concorde. Too early to say how it will do...
  10. You could also fly into Hayward, then rent a car and go south to the San Mateo bridge, then cut back north to the ball field. Or just fly into San Jose.
  11. Get the Halo headset. 'Nuff said...
  12. If an approach controller gave *me* a SID, I'd ignore him, too.
  13. Pull the Gear Warning Horn CB and the Stall Warning Horn CB. Take a hair dryer to the stall switch tab opening. After you feel you've dried it out, push back in those two CBs, energize the Master Switch, then jiggle the stall tab a bunch of times, until the noise stops.
  14. My daughter passed the Bar two years ago... I'm still waiting...
  15. Yeah, $20,000 per year is a good estimate... The fuel is what balloons that number...
  16. "When do you use takeoff flaps?" Takeoff.
  17. ???
  18. Interesting article at AOPA. Includes a link to a video demonstration. http://blog.aopa.org/leadingedge/?WT.mc_sect=sap&WT.mc_id=130726epilot&p=3971
  19. Thanx for all the replies, folks. I decided against landing at 5GA3 because I'm not proficient in soft-field takeoffs, and my plane has 115 gals. of fuel aboard, and we've had a lot of rain recently. RLBridges, the IA is Bell Aeromotive.
  20. Considering taking my Bravo to an IA whose shop is at a grass turf airport. What will I need to do with the wheel covers to prevent problems?
  21. If you hate the height of a 201's panel, don't even get into a Bravo... http://mooneyspace.com/gallery/image/30291-/
  22. Now, one of the Asiana pilots said a bright light was shining in his eye. That's the ticket.
  23. "The owner claims he was told a rough engine or engine stalling during taxi turns was/is a common problem with Mooneys." Reminds me of the "Tractor Incident" Seinfeld episode.
