And I always thought it was when pigs could fly

The hangar is full again. I was starting to go nuts

Good ole days. Pure US Navy AirPower. VX-30 Legacy flight back in the 90’s. Pt Mugu.

Thx. And +1 on the Lycoming 0-320.

Any CFI's/pilots with B-23 experience have any comments about the bad rap they have for landings? I'm kicking tires on one (160/hp) and found this article. ----------------- These airplanes have developed a reputation for providing some ego-crushing landings for even experienced pilots. Student...

Sitting here at KCKV waiting on buyer to pick up my Cherokee I just sold. Looked up after 15 minutes to see the Staggerwing hanging from the ceiling.

Sweaty palms
