Lol, forgot about this thread...+1 on the P

Yesterday at KRVS

I volunteer mine...love your work!

+1 The Cessna's chart for the P337

One of my Commanders actually did fly the 0-1 in Vietnam...He hated it, he said they gave him the choice between that and the backseat of an F-4...He wanted to fly and not ride....I don't know if I would have made the same...lol Now I can go back to lurking, I've posted more in two days than...

there is also the separation of service record

You should call them out on it...relatively easy to prove most all are presented with a shadow box at their retirement.

My wife bought me the book years ago but I never read it...I guess being there did not make me want to revisit it, but it makes a good coaster on my nightstand. The only pilot and plane our block 42 coalition lost was during a night takeoff into a sandstorm, spatial-D 500 kias into the ground...

Equipped (boots, props, hot plate, ice light) but not certified, the story is that Cessna did not want to spend the money on the testing for the cert...the previous owner said it "would carry a load", I have not tried to see what that amount is... I view it as an aid to get out of icing and...

I'm not dead yet...lol I've been around, I just fly under the radar :) and yes still married to the Skyrocket...the lineboy today acted like he'd seen a unicorn.

F-16's were not FIKI and I don't know of any other fighters that were or are. Above 350kias it sublimated, we had a saying "Ice doesn't stick to speed".

Sounds like a bargain compared with doing it yourself...if its a popular model it will only become more valuable.

Great Job!

Well he is a missionary so he probably has set it up that way.

I met a guy today with a turbine twin (big cabin class) that told me he sells raffle tickets to people to have dinner under the stars....he takes 3 couples at a time up and serves them dinner. This sounds to me like he is skirting the rules to part 121 and should be 135 charter....your...

+1 so sorry...I know what it is like.

Bottled water and beef jerky.

Then buy one...it has saved more than one friend...Don't fly IFR without one or a Back-up ADI with it's own battery. If you go x-c you need in flight weather.
