    I was hoping for his sake they might have been oversized bearing codes. Now I'm looking for a middle finger emoji.

    Honda made tractors for a few years in the 90's... 3 cylinder honda diesel. Runs like everything else Honda. Dad bought this from an estate and restored it. Tractor and 12 attachments including front end loader and backhoe for 4k. Not quite what you had in mind but it's red.

    "You should return a deceased airman's certificate to the FAA"??

    I'm taking mine to the grave and they can pry it from my cold dead hands. Getting it back would be desecration. Good luck.

    Desser v VSE

    Yeah. I was surprised at their history and product. And also surprised I had never heard of them. You can even specify what core you want. Desser actually sold to a private equity firm back in 2014. But that firm offloaded it to vse last summer.

    Rant: Exercising PIC, no not that PIC

    That's nucking futs! Bravo for exercising common sense. It's hard to pull that trigger in a situation like that. If both parties want to sell...I may be interested. As long as they know the thing is a literal bomb and should be priced accordingly.

    Balloon Ride in NM, recommendations?

    If you're headed up towards Taos, I also recommend visiting Abiquiu. Taos also has the Rio Grande Gorge bridge, which I was unprepared for. Abiquiu is where Georgia O'Keefe made all her landscapes. They filmed portions of Oppenheimer at Ghost Ranch just north of there. The Cumbres and Toltec...

    Desser v VSE

    Got an email from VSE about a tax exempt form from a purchase I made 6 months ago. That's before I learned of Wilkerson. Multi generational family operation that now has my business.

    the "not worthy of it's own thread" thread

    Giving me ideas about the neighbors alfalfa field again. Would have about 1,000' 18/36 with a 50' obstacle at the north end. And a 750' 9/27.

    Hey young people, tell us what you can do!

    A friend of mine is building a house in northern Wisconsin using the Amish. Said they've been the most honest people he's ever dealt with and amazing workmanship.

    Got it. I was under the assumption you still had the roll pin. So going back to the first incident, do you know what secured the set screw besides divine intervention? If they didn't issue the SI until 07, but we're using the set screw for the previous 30 years.

    I would definitely forward that saib with something along the lines of "I guess I'm not the only one...it probably wasn't the case" But I wouldn't give him the time of day to work on it.
