What do you think the Wright Brothers used?

Missed Sleep Lately Must Study Longer

And there really isn’t anything stopping Rief from landing there. I doubt if his agreement with the fire chief is legally binding or enforceable. And I found the following line in the article to be rather sickening. “St. Louis Fire Chief Dennis Jenkerson says, legal or not, it has to stop.”...

On purpose but not planned. It was evasive action to miss a log or other object, which I believe it hit anyways.

Oh and also not all hull or flying boats are amphibs. Some were just for water only.

Minor nit but a plane with amphib floats is still a float plane. A non amphib float plane is said to have straight floats.

I’ve never known anyone to taxi in to a fly in.

Seems to be a common thread on threads.

I believe there have been many cases that resulted in guilty verdicts that if I had been on the jury would have at least been a hung jury if I couldn’t convince the others to nullify as well. Take nonviolent drug possession charges for example. Unfortunately many of those plead out.

I’d wager a guess that it has more to do with the news source.

Yet in a jury trial we expect 12 common folks to reach an unanimous decision.

No kidding. Really? Surely you can’t be serious? Wow.

I would venture a guess that most people writing aviation instructional books are not a relatively new pilot. And as Aggiemike wrote, it is a crowded field. It also has a relatively small audience. You would really need a way to stand out.

I can agree with that. I know a couple of guys with seaplane ratings who never used it after passing their checkride. The reason I want to buy a seaplane is to not be one of those guys. It's easier to fly one if you own one. Though if I got my MES, I'd probably be one of those guys but hey...

It's not always about how much damage a plane suffers but rather a lot of times when a plane is damaged at an airport that lacks a major shop or a really good mechanic with type knowledge, they are more likely to end up sitting long term without being repaired. Owners can get brain freeze or...

Bambi down at the club loves him for that.

These days with word processors that can make real nice resumes, email, internet job boards and online applications, companies often get inundated with applicants even when they have no openings. So I think it is asking too much to expect a response to every job one applies for. However if a...

Since that’s a double negative, I guess there is such a thing as a free lunch.

I bet that would be fun to fly if I just had my multi engine seaplane rating. I’m jealous. Is that what you got your rating in or have you flown other seaplane twins?

You do make a good case for your plane. What is needed to do the swap out?
