Today, on the trip from Sheridan AR (9M8) to Jasper GA (JZP). I was on FF. Not long after being handed to MEM by LIT, The controller told me of some precip about 90 miles ahead. It had turned into a non-event by the time I got there. But right around Tupelo MS I was getting into an area of...

Mabe they shrank the W166. Mine's a 163. Actually just did a comparison. The 166 is a bit longer and wider, while the 163 is taller. Mabe the height is what visually makes it appear to be larger?

It's a pressure vs volume thing. If there was a gauge to measure fuel flow in gpm, it would show an increase commiserate with the decrease in pressure.

I ended up with an exceptional deal on mine. It was a pig, but with 400smoh, and well documented regular service. I sunk about $3-$4k into it after purchase, and 6 years later, worth every penny invested. Could actually sell at a profit quickly (if i were so inclined).

Interesting. One feathered, and one not.

I've parked next to some GLs, and my ML makes them look tiny. Even the E, and S.

My Granddad had a small sample brick/paperweight from Acme brick.

My airplane is kinda like my pickup. I can't sell it for what it would take to replace it. So, I gotta keep it.

I had a run-in with some bad coleslaw about 40 or so years ago. Haven't eaten any since. Also haven't eaten anything containing mayo since then either. Something to do with salmonella. It was the worst couple of weeks ever.

You don't get insurance at 85. But if you already have insurance for the past 40 years, they usually won't cancle on you unless you have had some major claims. But if you cancel for any reason, like you sell your airplane, then a year or two later you get another one. Forget it.
