There I was, inverted at 15,000' with a broken seat-belt and hanging by my jock strap when the radio call came from headquarters "check in all athletic equipment" . . .

I flew by the regs today. Entered the pattern on a 45 to ldw. Made radio calls then me and my pax got home safely, cracked a beer and watched the colts win one.
 
I think I mentioned that once my GPS failed as I was leaving the pattern.

I HAD TO FLY BLIND!

I did mange to find the airport and land again but it was scary!
 
And there I was flying through the towering cumulus with the worst turbulence of my life with no autopilot and I was forced to pee into a bottle with a bottleneck that was too small. Somehow I made it without spilling a drop.
 
I told Wilbur and I told Orville and I'm telling you now that thing won't ever get off the ground...

My favorite was I was sitting around with a ranger from Viet Nam and a paratroop from WWII vintage and they're telling stories and drinking when one of them says "I stepped out of the aircraft a 100 feetinto a 27,000 knot wind..." I quickly chimed in he was blown sideways for ten miles before he hit the ground...
 
Be careful overly criticizing posters who come clean, even though they may spin it to their benefit. These stories act as a reminder of what not to do for the experienced, and may help the inexperienced from making the same mistake.

Good caution, but a few of these posts weren't mea culpa, but rather, "See? it ain't so bad..."

That's worthy of a smackdown, IMHO.

:dunno:

If it wasn't for some of Dale Snodgrass's flying, that movie s*cked.

Answer: A lot better than the Redskins, and the Eagles at least have a shot at the playoffs. :D

Did you see yesterdays thrashing of the Jets? :)
 
Actually, it was blah blah blah blah. Just sayin'.
