Beechcraft 95 Travel Air Down off Oregon Coast, 9/22/26

Our 83 year old renter used to hack the schedule computer we had set up in the school as a kiosk, and used it to surf porn while waiting for his plane to land.

You could say a lot of things about him, but.. I bet he'd pass a cogscreen, and probably a few other tests :D

Also we were so glad the $500 sams club PC didn't come with speakers.
 
Ralph, I can say his name now that it's public, was still very sharp technically. He worked ATC and then went into the technical side of the FAA and then on to one of the FAA's contractors. Did his own avionics installs. As recently of a few months ago he had a weird issue where one fuel flow was reporting higher than another, traced it down to an alternator wire being too close to the fuel flow wire causing EMI. Not sure about actual modern computers but seemed very competent with technology. There's a small chance he had his GoPro on the plane when he was flying but I'm not sure if he was running it every flight.
