Sporty's now sells a new T-shirt design. I bet I'm getting it for Christmas. Finally a useful T-shirt! :)

Not the first time, NOT the last time. :)

Strange. I actually saw that specific airplane on display at the museum in Britain in May. Wow. Never knew it had such a great story associated with it! I'll have to dig out the picture I took.

Wow, small world. Same here. We switched to Encompass a few years ago since they are a "discriminating" company. Their rates increased recently, though, so we too went with Travelers. Another "discriminating" company.

Wait, isn't that illegal now?

I agree with others. Find a GOOD school. Someone who wants to teach you to fly, not take your money for sh*tty service.

I agree with the guys, Vx should have been used if you needed to clear nearby obstacles. Live'n'learn. Though I am surprised the instructor did not advise right there on the spot. Also, if you broke ground at 2000ft in a 180hp machine with 2 guys and full fuel, this does not sound really right...

Very nice. More informative than most videos nowadays that are full of CGI and fluff. These are to the point, have great illustrations and even an idiot can understand that. (including myself)

Wait, "Student pilot scare" as the headline? That is UNACCEPTABLE! I demand they change it to something more meaningful, like "Terror in the sky, we're all gonna die!!!"

Wait, why did you opt to buy a used airplane that's not airworthy? Especially with 3 months of fixing stuff? Who will be the suicidal test pilot who makes sure that thing flies after the grease monkeys done wrenching on it and say it's "done and safe"? Good luck with your purchase but please do...

Look again. This ain't no high-wing Cessna. His charging indicator shows approx 15 amps (interpolated). *shrug*

Yup, that one, just a slight variation. :)

Cougar was a wuss, IMHO. I gotta wonder, after he turned in (threw) his wings, did he find a lucrative job in form of flying cargo planes full of rubber dog sh*t out of Hong Kong? Lucky duck!

That STAR has two WPs that caught my attention. MMTLY CRUUE. Love it! :)

Remember the frantic 911 call in wussy California where there was a "horrific plane crash in the bay"? Emergency vehicles showed up to see two young men sitting on the wing of their Icon and eating a sandwich on the water, basking in the warm noon sun. :) Down here in TX, we still get dumb 911...

Remember Johnny Droptables? :D

Sounds like a great excuse to go flying! Barring any bad weather, I'll try to make it. (and thank you for not starting at 8am) Will there be any questions ... sorry ... answers ... from Top Gun? Such as: "Goose gave this gesture to corroborate Maverick's story of keeping up foreign relations"...
