It suddenly dawned on me to check the survival kit. I asked for help in inventorying the contents...

Then I made a slight turn and lined up on the north-south runway at Swinoujscie, Poland. I had been there years earlier during a joint military exercise. The airport is called Solidarity and that's what I want to be with the ground right now.

I would like to "like" them all. Keep them coming.

I'm just a retired guy, no longer a scientist. I have a degree or two or three, in Aerospace engineering, and Physics and Systems Analysis. I designed and built Space shuttle micro-gravity experiments, as a rocket scientist, I designed ballistic missile targets and was chief engineer for top...

At Vandenburg AFB, the indoctrination brief says "Hit the deer." The alternative is to drive off the side of a cliff.

The State says you can't be inside because of COVID and the fires make outside unbearable so the only two places that are unsafe in California are inside and outside.

Thank you for your service.

I learned at community college. It is very much like flying in that you don't get better unless you practice.

Yes, this place just isn't redneck enough for me.

While on active duty, I always wore two watches. I later got a two time zone watch and later I worked in England. I thought I was done with all that until they went to daylight savings time as well. We are moving from AL to WV next month and our biggest problem is going to be the time change.

I've been using it a lot. On the right side you can call up cloud bases. Very helpful for planning but like it has been said, don't use it for more than a day or two out.

I think you are trying to do business with your hangar. With that in mind, do not do business with friends, it may affect your friendship unless everyone knows the rules and follows them.

We're moving to be near the grand children. The new house is about an hour from the nearest airport and they don't have hangar space. I figure less flying and being outside was airplane abuse so I sold it. One of the reasons I bought was the difficulty in renting while I was working. I could...

I delivered the plane today and the buyer drove me home. As far as the money transfer. I talked to his banker and she arrange for me to pick up a cashiers check at a local branch. When I met the buyer to sign the bill of sale, I gave him the check and he gave it back to me. Then it went into...

Start with the data plate and rebuild from there.

I had an Apollo GPS in my plane before the panel upgrade. It is still there. I replaced the KX170/MX170's with a KX155 W/GS and an ICOM 220. I replaced the audio panel with a PMA6000 and moved the Mode C xpndr up in the stack. That left room for a tablet to mount to the panel and for 2 USB...

Called my insurer and they said they would not cancel my policy until Thursday. They said I would be covered for my delivery flight tomorrow. I made it clear the plane was sold and I would be flying someone else's plane and they were OK with that. Today the new owner picked up all the GSE for...

Thanks for that, I'll make a call before I deliver it.

Got the 337 and faxed it to the prebuy mech and I got the check. The buyer is coming by tomorrow to pick up all the GSE- ladders, footlocker full of documents, and tools- and I'll fly it to it's new home when the weather clears. I still have insurance on it until mid-October.
