If money were no object

[JeffDG]

Useful load is probably impressive but only holds 7 and it is a glider so always looking for a tow pilot and an airport that sells solid rocket fuel.

Nah...no solid rocket fuel required, just a 747 SCA for a tow plane.

I'll take a Beech 18 on Amphibs and a CitationX. I'll rent the SR71 from Andy, we're about the same space suit size.

 

[AggieMike88]

No fair, you already have a very nice speedster!!! (Saw your departure from KSEP saturday... very envious of the climb rate you get from that RV10)

 

[AggieMike88]

I'll take a Beech 18 on Amphibs

I remember the photos you shared when you did some MES flying in that crate.... bare feet and all!

Carbon Cub.

 

[MickYoumans]

I would love to have a P51 or a Corsair. I have always had a thing for those WWII pistons.

If money were no object, anything on the ramp that looked interesting that day. LOL.

 

[Fearless Tower]

See...Tom Blair spitfire aviation. I'll settle for his collection. He made his wad thru healthcare industry.

Oooh, good point. If money was no issue, I'd take Kermit Weeks' collection.....and the Red Bull DC-6B.

And you had all the desired ratings, etc.

What would you fly?

I have a friend that flies the Bombardier Global Express and I asked him this and was surprised that he said in a perfect world he would fly some single engine, fabric covered, antique plane.

So what is your dream plane / mission?

Not surprised at what your friend said. Variety is the spice of life. I'd fly something different every day of the week.

Sea-Rey (I just read Puff, I don't really know anything about Sea-Reys). Then buy another residence around a lot of water.

With the rest of those unlimited funds, charter airplanes to take me to various places in the world which I have wanted to explore. I say charter because I'd probably want to stay in each of those places for awhile.

 

[tecprotb]

what is that?

1990 PZL-130T ORLIK.
Its on sale now for $785,000.00

It has to be the coolest plane ever. I would love to just fly in it.

 

[DesertNomad]

Piaggio P180 Avanti

Same.

 

[steingar]

 

[Anymouse]

Well, if we're talking fictional...

It'll do the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs!

 

[MachFly]

Spitfire mk XVIII

 

[wickedsprint]

B1 Lancer. Room for 4. Supersonic and loop able.

B1 Lancer. Room for 4. Supersonic and loop able.

Maybe if it came with a couple of nukes to lob around.

I am a pretty simple minded person who has difficulties dreaming TOO over the top, so I will go with my favorite from childhood and stick with a simple Lockheed P-38 Lightning.

and I would even take the one with the red bull stickers on it. I am not too picky.
