    Question for those smarter than me

    I don't either, but the Rutan Voyager back engine did all the work after takeoff iirc. Front one stayed feathered.

    Ferry pilots

    What this plan? Hire the guy to be your shop sweeper and spark plug gapper. Now he can go move one of the company planes for business reasons, right? Incidental to business? This one fbo I knew would ask it's line guys (ppls) to hop into a company plane and fetch a broken company plane and...

    I love the bootsraps reference! How dare they use the opportunity available to them by my voting habits! They better not build a giant hangar and runway! NIMBY!

    The Modern Spruce Goose.

    Good thing us genx/millennials know how to filter the bs from the bs. We were brought up in fake news! I never had to see the destruction of journalism; it's always been a steady stream of agenda laden bs to me. Anyway, there's a buyer out there for this contraption. The "carbon Condor" had...

    Emergency landing on Ocean City, NJ beach

    Must read the comments. Terrific if read with a jersey accent.

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    OMG I had to GTS. She deleted that balogna (flat hot dog) post and modded her robot.txt file so the innerwebs can't archive her stuff. That's how terribly inaccurate that post was. WTactualF?

    Real Estate Prices in Montana

    892 sq ft for 200k? Jump on it before it goes! Another 200k in remodels and code updates, it might be liveable. - From an AK perspective (AK has mostly junk for that price per sqft)

    Cessna 210?

    Here's the Bo' case... Get an A36 and take out the right front seat, and the right middle seat. 3 door low wing and with the seats out that aren't needed, you don't have to crawl up on a wing! Cabin class piston single.

    Class action suit by local residents against airport.

    Now I get why my passengers asked if I was in the Navy. I never was, but I have Top Gun memorized. I fly boxes now.

    What is 0 to the power of 0?

    This math I understand!

    Lets make Friday 'Joke Day'!

    Recirc reminds me... Had a conversation with a pax in the crowded jetway after getting back from the walk around. Me: pardon me, coming through, hot coffee, done checking the wing nuts... Pax: did you get your last breath of fresh air before taking off? They recycle the air until they land...

    Don't do that.

    How do you know this? And, to follow up and tie another thread into this, were you performing a turn about a point or pylon?
  17. Eric Stoltz

    Don't do that.

    Well, I guess you can do the zoom climb thing if your plane is cool and you don't wear a patched up leather bomber jacket from WrightBrothers in the summer and tassel loafers with no socks.

    Asking For A Friend: 8 Passenger Planes & Costs

    G&R back in the 87 era, General Aviation Services after that, then Hummingbird. Back in the day when it was a dirt road and Elliott was just the one hangar and no fence. Anyway, I'm kinda surprised, but not really, at the expense of Up. Would be a fun retirement gig, maybe.

    What's for dinner?

    Close enough, 5 pts. Fried panko'd spam katsu on taro bun. From SpamJam in PHNL. I had three.

    Asking For A Friend: 8 Passenger Planes & Costs

    Thread drift, where did you train? I kinda grew up there. General Aviation Services in the NE corner was my jam back in the olden days.
