    For the motorcycle race fans here....

    Isle of man TT video. These guys are certifiably insane. And so are some of the fans. The only "safe" way to see it is in the helo, if it could only keep up! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRWp9rhfS_0

    Greetings from the UK

    Well, here I am in the UK, meeting my new bosses, and getting the plan together for the coming year. I switched jobs (after 16 years) on September 1. And if that weren't enough, there is a big air show at the Imperial War Museum, Duxford this weekend, which I will be attending. Saturday the Avro...

    A video from my past

    This was posted at Wimp.com recently. I was working for a geophysical consulting company (1980-1984) that was hired by Texaco to prove that they did not in fact drill into the salt mine. Tens (if not hundreds ) of thousands of $$ later... inconclusive. I did get to do some pretty interesting...

    I no longer own the ugliest plane on any field

    In fact, I no longer own a plane at all.....:sad: After 16 years and 11 months of ownership I caved in to reality and sold it to someone with the money and desire to put the bucks into it to make it a nice plane. I sold it for only a thousand dollars less than I paid in April of 1996, and the...

    "Mountain Man" Henning Sighting

    I was in Cheyenne this week, and contacted The Man Henning, and as it turned out he was heading South and East after he got off work. Well, he not only came to the hotel, he stayed there and we had beers and munchies at the "manager's reception". We sat there and talked/told lies so long, we...

    Cool Shuttle Video

    Here is something you don't get to see every day. Cameras mounted on the sides of the Space Shuttle booster tanks. Notice when it breaks the sound barrier and watch the speed notation. http://www.youtube.com/watch_popup?feature=player_embedded&v=2aCOyOvOw5c#! Note in a couple of instances...

    5 Months tomorrow

    Tomorrow will be 5 months since our top poster ScottM will have had any activity on the board. Anybody know what has happened to him, or why he may have disappeared? Hopefully he is well and it is just a hiatus. Maybe he just wants to see how long it takes for the #2 poster to catch up to his...

    NPRM Humor

    Most folks don't know (or care) that the FAA has a companion for the railroads known as (how original) the FRA. They have some of the same inane language skills as the FAA, and go through the same rule making hoops as their aviation counterparts. One of our railroad friends with a sense of humor...

    A little Blackberry® help.

    So... Our company policy has always been such that you are required to have your cell phone on at all times when you are on the road so that your manager(s) can interrupt your otherwise productive day for "status updates" and such. The problem has always been that though this is a "requirement"...
