    210 down in Sydney

    That was a fine piece of flying. I was also happy to hear the reporter call it an emergency landing rather than a crash.

    question about low compression and overhauls.

    I don’t think I would ground run my engine at 2400 for an hour on the ground. YMMV

    T210 lands on rural NY highway, plane destroyed by fire

    well yeah, just generally speaking, if I have fire in the cowling, it’s an engine fire. Fuel, oil, spontaneous combustion……engine fire.

    First Remote Tower in the US

    Craig Field is the former Craig AFB that was shuttered in the early 70’s. There is not much happening there with the exception of fueling military aircraft. Lot of that happens there. Selma is severely economically depressed, but gets a lot of federal attention. I am not at all surprised this is...

    Thinking about the new Jeep Wagoneer (rant)

    That’s the thing, they aren’t going after the jeep buying crowd. They are going after the luxury car crowd. It would take a post like one of Nate’s to explain the the whole thing. I will just say, I am EXTREMELY confident they will sell, and sell a lot.

    Thinking about the new Jeep Wagoneer (rant)

    Fiat doesn’t own CDJR anymore. I work at a dealership, they will sell them as fast as they can build them.

    Equivalent automotive parts

    I work in the parts business and have for 40 years. Back in the golden era we would have people come in all the time wanting parts for their airplanes. My early bosses would never sell them anything if they mentioned that.

    Vortex Generators on Cherokees?

    I remember during training doing what seemed like hours of slow flight, I got somewhat frustrated with my instructor and asked “ when am I ever gonna fly like this”? He just smiled and said, “every time you land”. Anything that can make that easier and/or safer is ok by me.

    Tuskegee Airman National Historic Site - now open

    Moton Field is just off I-85 exit 38. The best option for food is Auburn, exit 51 and there are plenty of food options there. Just gotta figure out how to get up the interstate for 13 miles.

    So... I'm making an audiobook

    I am a huge consumer of audiobooks. I probably listen to one or two per week. Before, I would read actual books. I somehow just can’t do ebooks. For me, I can tolerate a less interesting story as long as there is quality narration. I can’t listen to even the most fascinating story if the...
