I have to know, what's it like to fly a Jenny or something of that vintage?

You tryin' to sell that airplane or something?
Actually, they've been flying it about once a month, weather permitting, until the new terminal building gets completed at the WF Municipal Airport, then the Jenny will make one more flight across town from its current home base (Kickapoo Airport, KCWC) to Sheppard (KSPS) then it will become a permanent indoor decoration inside the new terminal.

I've never got to ride in it and probably never will, but a friend of mine has and got to take the stick too. World-reknowned aerobatics pilot David Martin is the main pilot who flies our Jenny here in WF.
It's said to be extremely underpowered and the controls are heavy, uncertain, and sluggish responding... requiring great care and attention at all times.
The engine redlines at 1700 RPM and at full power on takeoff sounds like it's turning maybe 1200-1300 tops.
Here's a transcribed copy of a JN-4 POH: http://www.airminded.net/jenny/jn4_spec.html

Flew my brother to KLNR this time for lunch.
On the flight back approach vectored me directly over the Madison Isthmus. Nice views, crappy camera. Or my brother needs to learn how to snap pictures:

My dad's a pilot for Delta and he had to do his 3 takeoffs and landings to get current again and he told me I could come and play around in it after they were done

I got this DVD a few years ago, of a KingAir 350 roundtrip from KAPA to KTEX. http://www.flightvideoproductions.com/kingair350.htm
I'd love to fly into this airport one day

It is a fun airport to fly into. Not so much in a jet, but if I was flying something smaller and slower I would enjoy it even more.

I love Telluride and get there 1-2 times a year for skiing. Have not landed there yet as we pack too heavy for the week. Am sure it's a beautiful approach even in a jet

oI know i was just giving you a hard time, its overall shorts, that was all the rage in 1986!

Of course I did. The Grippen is a cool little jet but I don't think it was fair. The guy I was supposed to fight (also an instructor pilot) was sick so I ended up fighting one of their young guys. It wasn't pretty for him, but it was good learning. He'll get better.

This was Sunday over Clearwater Beach, FL. Literally the most beautiful day we've had this year. Perfect weather.
Did a lot of training right over this beach.

Much better view of KORD from the front seat:
As a non-pilot (yet), that sure does look confusing, LOL

If just looking at it is confusing, try throwing in listening to the ground controllers as well...
Naw, it all comes together pretty easy. And after going in/out of there just 'bout every day, you get pretty good at anticipating what they're gonna say next.

I finally get to post in this thread instead of just being a spectator! Here's a shot from my first solo cross-country this morning, from MYF to HMT, along the San Diego coast over Del Mar.
