fantom Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Did you use pitch or power to hold 70? Welcome to the "craze". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadrach Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Congratulations! Quote: Vref Congrats....don't mention the landing speed though it's a highly volatile subject. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottfromiowa Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Congratulations. Are you sure it wasn't 72? Hey Ross come to Cedar Rapids and look me up. I would love to talk about the "subjectives" of landing a Mooney face to face. You might want to have that scratch in your throat looked at. Hey, weren't you on Friends? You know the show that had a group of people that were you know "friends". Ross was the whiney one. You know, thought he was the smartest guy in the room? Do you know that guy? Thought he was funny, but was really not? Do you know him, Ross? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 This board has been remarkable in maintaining a civil, professional and intelligent exchange. Personal attacks are not warranted under any circumstance. If you want to disagree do so but keep personal comments out of the discussion.

scottfromiowa Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Just making conversation about a t.v. show character Cruiser...but if I did want to tell someone what I really thought of them in this P.C. world I would do so through a direct face to face not through clever inuendo and subderfuge. I believe in the direct approach. Thanks for the reminder on keeping it civil on the website. Good idea. Have a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
