    WTF California? They want to tax my aircraft when it hasn’t even been there?

    I had the same problem with New Jersey…somehow they linked my wife who was domiciled in Texas but commuted to work out of EWR and we had a crash pad there. Airplanes never been there and and never purchased there or even registered in the state…I wrote a nice letter and explained they could kiss...

    Phoenix/Scottsdale broker recommendation’s

    My Warrior closed on Thursday and thanks to Fresh Aircraft and John Calhoun for making it easy. I could not have had a better referral from this board. Now the hard part what is next.

    Insurance Surprise

    Mine dropped $300 when the kid got her instrument/commercial prior to renewal a month ago…so I was sort of happy with that…but talking to my broker is stupid expensive for retracts that I am thinking of buying…sold the Warrior today we were flying for her ratings. Three years ago I had three...

    I was the Brigade S2 at his retirement ceremony (Not the real S2 but played the position) in the hot Alabama sun with over 1K in formation…Pappy’s short remarks turned into over an hour of war stories and troops were dropping like fly’s from the heat towards the end….he just kept talking…MG...

    Two Blackhawks Down, 3/29, Ft. Campbell, KY, 9 dead

    I remember when the risk assessment card was first introduced from the Safety Center…we sort of laughed it off. This was a young crew mix no way to get around it. My early career was with a night only unit that was the only NVG unit in Europe called the Nightstalkers (One word and unit patch...

    Less flaps for XWind landings

    I Always land a PA-28 with less flaps and a little more speed…it’s a positive control thing and go round ease for me…got to be some reason there is three notches from flat to full… but we are talking real crosswind close to the limits and maybe gusting higher…

    We haven’t had a thread locked for a while, so

    Well the nomination has been pulled…guess the lack of Aviation Knowledge was not a problem but being named in search warrants targeting public corruption made a difference…it’s okay till you get caught…we deserve better from all our appointed officials.

    Civil Air Patrol questions

    Interesting how the official CAP websight describes themselves…did not no it was a private, non-profit auxiliary like a garden club… “CAP membership does not equate to membership in the military. CAP is a private, non-profit humanitarian organization, which is the official auxiliary of the...

    Another truck towing question

    3.73 rear end and gets 23 mpg at 70 mph on the Highway unburdened. The 2.7 really is an amazing package when only light to medium towing is required on occasion.

    Civil Air Patrol questions

    Most people don’t even know that many National Guard and Reservist are not considered Veterans. If you do not serve more than 179 days in a row while on federal orders, you don’t meet the criteria. Training is not counted…so a pure NG member may never hit that criteria even if they spend a year...

    Another truck towing question

    Mine has the 3.73 rear end…stupid fast 0-60 for the setup and better than any non raptor truck that year.

    Another truck towing question

    Just finished towing an approximate 4500 pound trailer from PHX to Houston with my 2016 F150 with the little 2.7 Ecoboost. 1267 miles averaged 14.6 mpg and Fords have a tow selection mode…I averaged 74 mph so basically cooking…the 5.0 probably would have done it better as my 4wd is maxed at 7600...

    Stolen Valor…first class dirt bag…also something I have been involved with for years and part of the reason we have a stolen valor law in Texas…it’s sort of simple if you never were subject to UCMJ for 180 days or longer and not for training, your a fraud.
