    I flew my Grumman Tiger over the San Andreas fault (video)

    I will admit part of me was wanting to film an earthquake happening from that vantage point :)

    I flew my Grumman Tiger over the San Andreas fault (video)

    I flew my Grumman Tiger to explore the San Andreas fault the other day. It's only fitting that I posted this video Friday, the same day after I was awoken at 4:30 in the morning by an earthquake, whose epicenter was right at my home airport!!

    SoCal for the Summer

    Awesome! Good luck with the Tiger search. If you haven’t already, join Grumman gang and the multiple Grumman FB groups. They often pop up for sale there.

    Windy & Challenging Short Field Takeoff

    Fun video as usual Eric. I've flown into Agua Caliente in my Tiger and encountered a very similar situation. In my case, upon arrival winds were favoring rwy 11, so I had to make that awkward approach next to the mountain. First attempt was a go-around. The second was "fun" but worked out fine...

    I think I found the cheapest AvGas in the world... (VIDEO)

    In full transparency, that thumbnail was photoshopped. LOL If I remember correctly it was a pretty standard aviation fuel nozzle.

    Action Cameras' Go-Pro or Garmin?

    GoPro and DJI both make quality cameras. I’ve always used GoPros. For the best audio, I recommend using a dedicated audio recorder. I actually just made a video that talks about this stuff:

    I left a question mark at the end of the title just in case somebody like Ravioli comes along to make such a claim. Show me where and how much!

    Ha. I feel like tacos have more flexibility and variation. I’m definitely team taco.

    Cirrus fatal crash - Orcutt school Santa Maria, CA

    Very sad. Looking at flightaware, it seems it was a base to final turn after a previous go around: https://flightaware.com/live/flight/N883PJ At least there are no kids at school right now or this could have been ALOT uglier.

    GA Formation Fly Over US Cities.

    We had the Thunderbirds flyover today here in Los Angeles. I watched it and typically enjoy these kinds of things, but honestly it was pretty underwhelming. It just seemed like a waste of resources.

    COVID Picnics - Western Area Suggestions?

    Kern Valley doesn't have fuel. As far as cheap fuel goes, perhaps you are thinking about Inyokern. This weekend they were selling AvGas for $1.19/gal!!!!! I filled up my plane for 39 bucks!!

    ATC LAUGHS at Impossible Request…BUT STILL GRANTS IT!!…IMPOSSIBLE airspace made POSSIBLE this ONCE.

    Legendary flight and well deserved. In the future people will say “remember that dude that flew low approaches in his RV at all 3 major NYC airports back to back”

    Buying first plane or the 2nd plane?

    I think you're gonna have a hard time finding a decent candidate with IFR GPS (what about ADSB?) with most on that list within that budget. Maybe a Sundowner/Musketeer? I don't know much about those. I know I'm biased, but I really think the Tiger sounds like a good compromise for what you want...

    I flew my plane over 400 parked airplanes in the desert (VIDEO)

    A fedex pilot chimed in on reddit and said business is good and most of those planes are being phased out for more fuel efficient jets. Glad you liked the video!
