Those NC boys know how to squeeze blood from turnips, too.

Amen. We need higher standards for DRIVERS! I have to negotiate the local freeways with millineals and I can tell you they drive recklessly. And don't get me started on the "texters."

Anything beyond three days is a WAG.

And I thought your Deb was a sweet bird! Congrats on finding that beauty.

I’d like to have an upgraded Yankee. Quick little two seater. The originals have a higher stall speed than later versions, due to the wing design, and are a little under powered. @Grum.Man owned one for years.

What a shame.

Buy a Luscombe, a Cub or an experimental with no electrical system. Stay below the B/C shelf, fly anywhere you want, just slowly. Hell, build a RV-whatever with no electrical system and fly faster.

Um, those birds are nothing alike.

What thread?

Recent visitor at FDW. One of my favorite planes.

Yup.

And they say bricks can’t fly...

Not since training. Everything online typically. I’d probably get a live brief if I was planning a really long cross country, unless the weather was perfect. One of my instructors calls before every flight.

Yeah. My wife went through a Twilight phase. Glad that's over.

You were watching Twilight?

Sweet!

Well, they nailed it today. Can't wait to get my 3600-lb LSA! Just typical spring wx. Merde.

Sky was so beautiful and surface winds really low compared to yesterday, so I set out for my first spring XC. Thermals and crazy winds produced a (sometimes) tooth-jarring ride, but I saw it through. When the forecasters call for moderate turbulence, plan on it! Visibility was 50+ miles. Rare...

I bet he'll go for the LSA weight increase!

LOL. Me neither.
