    Stupid pilot trick number 2

    Yes, when the engine died, I saw the airport and began a slip to land. I made the calls and the landing with no issues. I decided that diagnosis is easier on the ground. Once I decided on a path, I made it happen. Yes it was a stupid pilot trick.

    How can I make money with my own plane?

    After a tornado went through our area I called the TV station and they sent out a reporter to fly with me and take video. When the young lady arrived I told her the TSA requires that I frisk her before we took off. The look on her face was priceless and we laughed about it throughout the flight.

    Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrg!

    If you have ever read any of Scott Adams work he says developing a talent stack is the way to success and it sounds like you are there. My Dad always says the harder I work the luckier I get. Sounds like you have all the luck you can generate. Now all you need is a good mail server. Hang in...
