Thread 'End of the Rope: My Flight to Hollywood'

As mentioned in another thread before my trip, I flew over 1,000 miles to California just to see a movie. Someone mentioned an ongoing dossier about me, so I figured I’d mess that up a bit with some facts. Here’s the story of how and why I made the trip. It’s a long post. Long enough that the forum software forced me to shorten it. TL;DR: Airplane, weather, and terrain photos will follow in separate posts.

I fell in love with flying when my Dad got his PPL in 1989 and, two weeks after his check ride, took me and my sister for a local flight in a Piper Archer II that he bought into...

Can this be merged with the “not worthy of its own thread” thread?

Yep. That’s me. And I think the movie recently got included with Prime for you cheapskates who were interested in watching it but were saving your $5 or whatever it cost to pay for your restricted radiotelephone license.

It was. We watched it there in the last couple of months. I *think* I posted about it in your thread, I’ll have to check to be sure.

ETA: nope, didn’t post about it. I did show both threads to my wife and we also looked up a couple resources local to your area on the story.

I seem to recall looking your dad up/the story up on your state court system website and the county historical society.
