I go over that way quite a bit (condo is on west end of PCB). My brother recently solo'd and is working on his ppl over in panama city (northwest beaches airport) as well. Maybe we could all meet up sometime. -Rob

Plane Driver - you win. Way to go that is beyond impressive, sir.

Very cool! I have been inspired to dig out my video etc. of Denali flying. It is not the best video but it is awesome. Felt like you could stick you arm out the side and smack the sides of some of the passes. I love DC-3's. Real workhorses in AK/CA. -Rob

Here's mine: Back in 2006 I had chartered a turbine otter along with 3 others to take us up and land on Denali (highest mountain range in North America). For 3 days we were on weather hold. Finally I get a call that if I can be there in 15 minutes I could go along with some people I never...

I agree. When I build some more time and can get the insurance down a little I'm leaning towards M20J. After flying my uncle's 231 needless to say "I saw the light". Enjoy your plane in good health!

Re: ethanol problems I run a few companies in the marine (boats) industry. We are all too familiar with ethanol problems . . . and some of the worst ones I don't think have been mentioned so far (I didn't read page 1 thoroughly). Ethanol is a very powerful SOLVENT. This is a major problem...

The wx man in New Orleans said there were over 4,000 lightning strikes detected in that storm yesterday! (while in TX)

I have tried to do the same thing. My Grandpa's records (along with many others) were lost in the fire. I don't think there's any logbooks, but I will ask. Good luck with your search as well.

I don't know the year(s). I will ask my Mom and my Uncle to see if they have any idea? They also moved around a lot, so if that training took place at particular bases they would know when they lived there. Thanks for the info! Added: My PawPaw was also a flight instructor for a looong time.
